I'd think it would be better to wear the jacket in town because there are alot more vehicles closer to you in town then on the highway.
Just a suggestion

1.) It's a proven fact, the majority of accidents happen within 5 miles of home.
2.) When you're 'around town,' near your house, etc.... you're defenses are down. You're in your comfort zone, so you're not quite as aware of potential hazards as you are when you're in an unfamliar area. All the more reason to keep your flesh protected.

helmet, jacket, gloves and jeans. i dont have any boots, just skate shoes. probably not the best protection, but comfy as hell! btw, i heard jeans are the next best thing to leather. i could be wrong, but thats just what i heard.

but as anyone whos fallen off of their bicycle as a id could usually notice, you would usually have holes in your pants just from that little spill.

RE: what gear do you wear???
I'm new to bikes, though I have some time on a dirt bike, but only messing around with friends years ago...
I don't want to skimp on gear... I've already got an HJC helmet, but want gloves and a jacket at a minimum. If I have enough cash left for pants and boots, I'll get those as well. Anyone have any recommendations on good, safe gear that won't drain my bank account? I know... you get what you pay for, but I'm looking for real world advice on this.
Thanks!
