I'm always geared up head to toe.

Everytime I take the bike out, without exception, I'm wearing at least the following:

1. Leather jacket
2. Mesh/textile pants
3. Helmet (duh)
4. Gloves
5. Boots
6. Back protector

For "dedicated" rides where I don't plan on stopping much, #1 and 2 is replaced by a 1 piece suit. Actually, I'd rather just wear the suit more often if I can help it, but there are times I do plan on stopping and walking around, and it's kinda hard to do that in a suit.
