Speaking of protection, does anybody know of padding for that upper
thigh area that always gets raspberries when you flip out of the buggy?
I would much prefer wearing padding than thin pants in the 100 degree
desert.

Also, what happened to that picture that somebody took of Dean, Philip 
Chase, and me at BBT2 showing our wonderful upper thighs?  Maybe somebody
can post it on a web page.

You might check out the padding used by skateboarders and inline
skaters. They have pad panels that fit inside your pants (Please, no
jokes about cosmetic padding!). They also have pants that have the
padding built in. Check out an inline skating magazine for ads.
