    what do you wear in summer?

    Shorts and tshirt with an icon vest to hide my manboobs.... But in seriousness, if i'm just cruising around the city I chose to just be comfortable and enjoy myself rather than be sweaty and miserable. I understand the risk. Wearing gear doesn't make the roads any safer.

    Failure to show insurance card.

    I doubt it. I had the same thing, didn't affect mine. I was unable to provide my license or insurance on my bike ( forgot it in my other jacket ) got 2 tickets. I got one thrown out, so one remained on my record. My rates never went up. (State Farm)
