Blech! I like the drip of fluid running down your knee in the 1st one.

That could have been so much worse. Good thing you had some gear on.

A friend dropped a bike doing 90 MPH on I-95 in West Palm Beach at 10 at night. He was in a construction zone speeding with only a helmet on. He was wearing jeans and a tank top.

He was in the hospital with road rash equivalent to 3rd degree burns all over his torso, legs hands and arms. He had no health insurance and the bills came out to over $50K. + a totalled bike.

The pincture marks in his helmet indicated he would be dead if he did not have it. Everyone was amazed he was alive from that wreck as it was.

Wanna see his pics? It might make you feel better.

Heres to a quick healing and speedy recovery.
