I take that back. Acid washed jean tights are a fashion statement.
29'ers are just the best way to have a good time on two wheels. Period.
(Thanks to Lynda Wallenfels for the awesome photo)

BTW: A course marshal actually said "Way to go girls!!" on the last day. I'm not sure if he was kidding or mistaken, but it certainly added to my entertainment value.

Are those actual jeans or tights made to look like jeans?

Back in the early-mid 90's Carrera (which I believe is/was a Euro jeans brand) sponsored a road team (including Marco Pantani) that rode in bibs that looked just like that. Awesome.

Tights by Tomasso.
I think my favorite rider to ever wear the denim look was Claudio Chiappucci.
I'm a big fan of little climbers.
