Amen! It's ATGATT or no ride for me.
You only have to have had (say that 3 times fast...) one nasty unplanned get-off to appreciate gear.
The "naked squid" - as we used to call them - is an every day sight here in SoCal. At the beach last Sunday I saw three separate young couples on sportsbikes riding along PCH, all of them wearing only a helmet for gear with shorts, t-shirts, tennies or flip-flops(!), no gloves. Even as a long-time sportsbike rider who wasn't always the smartest/safest rider, I still flinch when I see it.

i have never had a nasty unplanned get-off but for me as well It's ATGATT or no ride for me.
always a full face helmet, riding jacket, over pants, gloves and boots.
i just replaced my 1 piece riding suit.
i ride year round. only snow and ice keep me from riding.
i have lots of different riding gear for the different riding conditions.
