I am mostly a commuter and just wear normal pants. Have been thinking about maybe getting a few special denim pants for riding, but they are quite expensive.

What do you all use? I do ATGAT everything else.

Riding jeans with knee and hip armor if I'm riding the putt putt bike around town.

Since I can still squeeze my ass into my leathers, so I wear those on the go -fast(ish) bike. Even sometimes on the putt putt for grins. I don't like two piece leathers, so if I'm going to look weird, I'm going the Power Rangers route.

You can usually find riding jeans on sale for around $100 online if you keep at it. I got mine at motorcyclecloseouts.com.
