All the kit, or what?
The same old question.
Ride with all the kit or just what you think is good for the day?
Some will say all the kit all the time. Other's what I feel good in, on the day. Of course there's distance to be taken in to account, and weather. Hot very hot and cold. Is a full set of leather's in 30/40 degrease of heat. A good idea? Or dress down so you don't over heat. The min I will wear is. Kevlar jean's. Gloves, Boot's, and a long sleeve top. I must admit, that the long sleeve top is usually a long sleeve thermal vest and wool or thick cloth top.
A lot better than short's flip flop's and a vest. I have also noticed that with all the kit, I kind of slip in to power ranger mode. Less kit and I ride a lot gentler. So there is something to say for the less kit approach.
