If you are comfortable and don't have a reason to use the gear then you don't need the gear.

I wear bike shorts where ever I ride and usually have a some stupid annoying jersey (no pro kits here except a t-mobile jersey because it was xxl and half price)
so I am not a lance wannabe but a jan wannabe.
