We have a saying in the motorcycle world, "All the gear, all the time" = ATGATT. You dress for the fall, not the ride. And PvG is right about the term, "rather sweat then bleed" I will still wear my leather motorcycle jackets in the Florida summers. But textile/mesh jackets still provide good protection and great breathability.

Reminds me - several years ago on a field trip with students (we ended up in a smallish town) our departmental driver found a biker's jacket in a "bundle store" - they bring in huge bundles of second hand clothes from the US, Europe, Japan, etc., open up the bundles and sell the individual pieces. You even get stores like this in small towns. This jacket was really nice - it had a big emblem on the back (motorbike gang?), which seemed to be Korean rather than Japanese. We were in that town for three days, he agonized over whether to buy it or not - it was about USD15 - actually quite expensive if you were making USD500 a month. He ended up buying it.. I was thinking it wasn't exactly suitable for the climate here (it's 32C+ year around, and humid) but I suppose you could wear it indoors where it's air-conditioned.

I am NOT EXCITED about John getting a Motorcycle license. HE HAS A NEWBORN, THIS IS NOT THE TIME. I am sure many riders will chime-in their disagreement, never the less I stand with what I said. I have about 3 million Km driving experience as professional and I am a rider as well. I have seen things and experienced situations MANY TIMES OVER that most people have not. So I trust my views on this! As reference to sink in: someone who is driving 10.000Km per year, will need 300 years to have 3 million Km experience! So please don't take too lightly what I have said. I have said it in good faith and with the best intention only. I know riding a bike is a lot of fun. But so are many other wonderful indulgences that we consciously chose to skip. Such is life.
