Just got back from hols in Florida where the usual bike gear is jeans or shorts, t-shirt, sunglasses.
No helmet required.
In the whole 2 weeks only saw 2 people wearing any kind of jacket and that was on the motorway, 95% don't wear helmets either. Maybe the fact that 95% of bikes are Harleys explains some of it.
Whilst we were there a guy was killed at a junction near us when someone else ran a red light and hit him, he wasn't wearing a helmet.
I think it's up to people to make their own decissions on what to wear, but I don't think I would ever not wear a helmet even if the law allowed it.
jacket and jeans at least please
