What do you wear when you ride?

I know this was a thread a while back, but the boards have been kinda slow lately.
What do you guys wear when you ride. Whenever I get on the bike gloves, jeans and eye protection are a MUST for me. Next is jacket, helmet, boots, and speedrag pants if i feel like im gonna eat **** hard that night. Whens its nice I do alot of riding in just gloves, jacket, hat, and jeans.

Better safe than sorry. I absolutely don't want roadrash. I've seen it firsthand and I don't think I could stand the pain.

Normally I wear a nice lacy thong underneath assless chaps with a hypercolor t-shirt thats too small for me.

no shoes...one brown sock on the right foot.

And a hard-hat that says "YAY!" on the back...........

I've seen quite a bit... I will always wear pants.... I hate to see stupid girls with their bathing suits on bikes.... You never know when but it will always happen
