times in the mid-30s and sometimes down to 6°. The
jeans have been fantastic for all climes and conditions.
Not once have I regretted wearing them and in fact, I find
them comfortable enough to wear all the time. I have
washed them on a cool wash as instructed on the label,
and they have not shrunk or stretched. I feel smart yet
ready for anything in them and only wish I had discov-
ered them sooner. Thank you, Draggin Jeans.
Jacqui Furneaux is a world traveller of note, having
written the outstanding book, Hit The Road, Jac! about
her 7 year ride around the world on her trusty Royal En-
field Bullet 500.
As a long distance traveller Jacqui has a need for bik-
ing gear that is not only functional but can also stand up
to the tests of travel while maintaining a level of style
that can be used in areas not associated with riding. Her
experience in this area is second to none, who better to
review female specific riding gear?
Jacqui's book, Hit The Road, Jac! is available at Am-
azon, Kindle and Audible and is published in the USA
through Road Dog Publications. More information on
Jacqui's travels can be found at www.jacquifurneaux.com
where the book is also available.
