I have become thin skinned – literally!
Just another curse of getting old, the skin on your hands gets quite thin. I use lots of hand lotion, but that only marginally helps prevent scrapes and cuts. Yesterday, while pulling the seat off of my Norton, which is always a battle, I scraped my hand against the backseat rail and literally took off a quarter size piece of skin. Bled like a stuck pig. 10 years ago it probably would not have even left a bruise.
So what’s the answer? What are you guys that are in the over 60 group doing to prevent these kind of injuries? I suppose I could wear mechanics gloves all the time.
