Hey, if I can laugh at my own misfortune, why not give everyone else the opportunity too? Grin  And yeah, I pretty much kept my cap on most of the time for the next week or so.

As for gear, I always wear some kinda heavy boots, mostly steel toed (get 'em almost free through work!); jeans, sometimes with chaps, sometimes even ski pants, depending on the weather; almost always a jacket of some kind, leather, textile, or mesh, unless it gets over 100° and I'm doing all city riding; and almost always a helmet (OR and WA are helmet states), FF most of the time, 1/2 once in a while.

Kimmy, don't disown me, cause I always wear my boots, and jeans, (chaps if its below 55°) but I do ride in T-shirts quite often.  No gloves, unless its really cold.  I wouldn't dream of riding in flip-flops, and most likely not in tennis shoes, but that's mostly cause I don't like wearing tennis shoes anyway.  
Helmet - well, when I was in Kentucky, I did ride through the campground without my helmet, but otherwise, I wore it.  I'm still skeered to ride without one.  But maybe next time I get across the border, I'll try it, just to see what it feels like.  

If I see full gear around here, they are on a squid, or possibly a full dresser, but alot of them wear t-shirts and shorts too.  And I've seen girls on the back of a squid in next to nothing.... thinkin' they must be friggin nuts!  

Oh, and speedo's are definitely OUT!  Please guys, if any of you own one (or god forbid, more than one), THROW THEM AWAY!
 
AJ, I can tell the difference in a man wearing chaps... its all in the walk.    Wink

Nice sunburn John!  And nice of us to let us rib you!  My shoulders got pink a couple weekends ago, and now they are peeling.  I usually don't peel and don't mind to get a little pink, but I hate the peeling part.  I bet your nose looked nice when it peeled....

Piglet, you know I love ya gal. If you feel comfortable not being in full gear, then good for you.
Again I feel safer in gear and yes I am confident in my riding abilities. However I am not comfortable in others ability to drive safely.

Was I this strong concerning gearing up before the accident? Hell ya or else I would not have been all geared up that beautiful sunny day.

I wish safe riding to all of us. I enjoy reading your posts of current activites your able to do example, the scavenger hunt.

O and we have beautiful scenery that crosses rivers as well as 2 volcano's that offer breath taking views on the way up to them.

Hey Earlytimz, see I got back on topic. Just took awhile to do so.. Wink

We are going camping this weekend.  Will ride if the weather holds out well enough.  I'll take some pics!  There is a cool little Indian fort there.

Yeah, I peeled like a snake for a while after that. Grin  It's one of the hazards of working nights, I'm just not used to being in the sun all that much.  Lessens my risk of skin cancer I guess. Undecided

And I'm not gonna be caught dead in a Speedo!  Heck, I don't go out in public in any kind of shorts, partially due to the above mentioned pasty-ness. Grin

Oh, and the one piece of gear I forgot to mention is gloves.  Even if I'm riding in a t-shirt, I'm still wearing gloves.  I like all of my digits right where they are, thank you very much! Cheesy
