If I'm just running to the 7-11 or random errands it what ever I'm wearing and the Super Galaxy with the Brooks B-17. Anything over about 10 miles and it's always shorts, but possibly some wicking shirt that isn't necessarily a jersey. If I'm carrying gu packs or other nutrition for a hard ride it's full kit. Dead of summer rides here in Texas get full kit also for the wicking properties.

I have leg warmers, tights, and long sleeve jeseys, wind jackets, and a rain jacket for colder or foul weather. I alo have wool socks and wool cycling gloves for colder weather.

My tourer has platforms, but every thing eles is Look. I recently got some Performance MTB shoes and will soon be picking up some Campus style pedals for the tourer.

I hace never thought of cycling clothing as a fashion statement and tend to only get solid color and rather non descript items. The one exception is my Livestrong wind jersey and it's as yellow an yellow gets.
