there are alternatives if you dont want to ride in full leathers. Draggin jeans and jackets! no where near as good as full gear, but better than nothing!
Friend of mine has taken to riding in her draggin stuff all the time, i dont agree with it, but atleast it offers some protection

if i still rode every day then id proably start wearing Draggin jeans, alot easyer than pulling leathers ect on if your just nipping to the shops, still no were near as easy or conveniant as jumping in the car tho!

gota be fair they cater for bikers much more in spain thoe cos they have little lanes for bikes everywhere so thats cool. but i dont feel comfortable without my full leathers an boots however in a hot country its a different story i guess
