I've seen a lot of cyclists around here start wearing those neoprene knee braces not only for support, but for a small measure of ablative protection for a wipeout. Won't protect your knees from being banged up, but at least it'll stop some of the abrasions.
Kind of like motorcycle leathers. Won't protect you one whit in the case of a crash, but they'll ensure your corpse stays in one piece.
