I believe that you also have to wear jeans and a long sleeve jacket or heavy shirt.
According to the MSF training course I went to (from their website):
Minimum required gear includes:
-helmet and eye protection,
-sturdy over-the-ankle footwear,
-long-sleeved shirt or jacket,
-long pants, and
-full fingered gloves.
You must bring:
-Sturdy over-the-ankle footwear,
-eye protection (eye glasses, sun glasses, or helmet face shield),
-long-sleeved shirt or jacket, and
-long pants.
We'll provide:
-Helmets and gloves, but bring your own if you have them.
Helpful Hints:
-Bring rain gear, no ponchos (we ride in any weather)
-Bring sun screen (we ride in any weather)
-Bring drinks & snacks (it's a long day)
-Don't wear boots with high heels (can make braking and shifting difficult)
But check with your MSF training facility first, they may have different rules.
I hope this helps!!
