Ten bikers were fined in my immediate area last weekend, they don't seem to bother with cars as much.

They did a top job on my leathers and textile suits.
Affordable, comfortable & discrete. Sounds like an upmarket sanitary towel, but hard! because we're worth it
Thoughts in no particular order:
I've been using Dane textile kit for a few years now, and I've been very impressed. There are a number of options for waterproof laminates but they also do a summer mesh jacket - the Fano - which I've been tempted by. When the temp was exceeding about 26-27 degrees last year I was too hot in the Sealand jacket. The previous drop-liner jacket (Limfjord) I had was what I needed then. Rukka also do a mesh jacket - the Corsair - if that's your thing. AFAIK Rukka use D30 armour, which quite a few other manufacturers use. Also consider Klim - more offroad oriented kit but they have introduced a touring line as well. The only comment I'd make about this is that you don't get any sort of thermal insulation with their kit. You're expected to layer up as needed, and it can be a bit stiff. It's difficult to beat Rukka for comfort. I've also read good things about Stadler, (think the police use it?) but no personal experience.
The Rallye suit, as an adventure suit, is probably going to offer much better venting than a standard touring waterproof laminated one, so your thoughts of mesh jacket/waterproof overjacket is definitely worth considering, especially given the recent good weather!
I've also had a couple of pairs of their Orsa gloves and can't praise them highly enough - particularly the suede motorcross-esque ones! On top of that, I've also got their armour in another jacket and another pair of jeans
It's been pissing it down all weekend so can't go ride it
I went out for a bloody lovely ride yesterday with some guys from work. Twisty route from Sevenoaks down to Eastbourne for lunch on the beach, then across to Hastings and back to Sevenoaks via the A21. Not too much traffic around, and perfect weather here! Incident free too, which is always nice - though I did almost rear-end a van when I got distracted by some rather nice eye candy in a miniskirt...!
