I think anyone wearing chaps in Queensland deserves whatever abuse they encounter. It was definitely warm and muggy the entire 2 1/2 weeks I was there!

The floods were almost twice the entire size of Texas, a disaster of biblical proportions they reckon. More likely some sort of biblical retribution for carrying manbags is my tip. Keep your chin up Frenchie. Your day is bound to improve once those chaps start rolling in through the mail.
All chain-yanking aside, I sincerely hope the people in the flooded regions will recover from that catastrophy. It's always a tragedy when good people lose whatever they have.
Now, back to topic. I've never owned chaps, and I'll rather take the cold or the moist then to ride around like Rooster Cockburn on Mescaline, but I'm going with the "live and let live" thing, so chaps for everybody who likes them. Under one condition: wear pants underneath, unless you're a 25 year old blonde stripper on a bike week vacation.

I might put my assless chaps on coming back home this evening, if it get chilly enough. Not as bulky as the heated bibs I have for cold riding.

No, but watch out if you put on a pair of leather pants. That looks really gay.
