Its been getting colder here in the evenings. Another thing is my pants always seemed long enough. When I walk, they come down to a good place at my shoes. When I sit, they come up a bit. But, on a motorcycle, that little bit they came up to seems to be above the sock and boy you really feel that cold air where your pants end. In the future, I may get my jeans a little bit longer.
Jeans feel thick when your wearing them around. But on the bike, the wind can go right through them. Plus I keep reading that jeans aren't much protection if you fall. They are more like paper than like actual protection. Given all that, I invested in a pair of Harley-Davidson Leather Chaps. I'm styling. They really add to my biker look. Plus I'm a bit safer. Kind of worried about the part they don't cover, but more research on riding gear is needed. But too, my legs aren't cold anymore when I ride. Not even on the gap where my pants come above my boots or socks. That alone makes it so worth it. Plus did I mention I'm styling? :)
