I still have the jeans with the hole in my right knee from last year where I deliberately got my kneedown on my Aprilia RS50 - being a roundabout warrior.

Not big or clever really ::) :D

I never go out without leathers on now, and have just told my fiance off for riding off to work just in jeans!!! >:(

I don;t wanna be nursing gravel rash either through coming off the bike, or getting my knee down whilst only wearing jeans!

As with Schwee I dont ride unless in kit, I do have a pair of Draggin Jeans that I wear in the summer months if I know I will be getting off of the bike to walk about abit, but others than that I wear the kit (even if I do ride 4 miles to work).
