I like the expression on his face in the bathtub pic. His big blue eyes are going to break a lot of hearts later. :wink:

I bought myself some riding jeans this week end. Some Tecnik Rage Jeans.... got the armor in the knees, and some kevlar and what not... Im sure theyll help if I fall off the bike when the snow melts and I can ride.

We require piktars.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Hmmm, the snow took a $hit kicking yesterday, it hit +12C!!! I can see my driveway again!! and I see some lawn in the backyard (well, its where I used the snowblower to get to my shed, but its still gras!) unfortunately, I see the evil weather guy is calling for more snow over the next few days...hopefully theres no accumulation, and I can get the bike out in about a month if it stays like this. come on April!!!!! and street sweepers, theres alot of sand on the raods......

Wow, even the dog is strikin' a pose :click:


Nice pants mister, now hand em over. Ok, not really something a married women should be saying to a married man, not married to each other :laughing:

I'm still in the market for riding jeans too. Glad to see you've got yours ready to go.

A guy at the shop in TX said teknic runs pretty true on the sizes. Have you found that to be accurate?

The pants are the same size as my regular jeans, the legs seem a little long, and the knee armor seems low when your standing, but when you sit on the bike, they snug into the proper possition. I highly recomend them, just comfort wise though, I dont know, and hope I never do know the effectiveness of the padding.
