I think the pleasure of doing so outweighs the risk of road rash if I were to fall.

Yes, you are right, what motivates me is the sheer pleasure of the sun and the wind on my bare skin!
I wonder also about this: I would rather ride completely naked but this is definitely not legal, even though my "skimpy" speedo/underwear is I think much more sexy (for those who look at it that way) than wearing nothing at all.
Don't you think society is kind of weird?
