If it begins to hurt or feel painful, cover 'em up. I commute in shorts 10 miles each way down to the upper 30s, I just get way too warm if I cover my legs. Never had any problems with my knees. I guess maybe if you're Lance and you're out biking for 5-8 hours at a stretch covering them up might be better.
