You’re gonna want pants too. If not from a protection point of view, then from the not getting soaked to the bone. It takes very little rain to soak jeans, but a lot of sun to dry them out. And when you are cruising at 40mph, any wetness on you is really bad news.
Now, in my defense, there was no snow on the road, and no snow was accumulating when I rode my bike home. I’m not *that* crazy…
