Yummy! Good reality checks - I really hope I never look down and see something similar at the end of one of my limbs (or anyone I'm riding with - I've been very lucky in that regard).
I think we also should recognize & remember that 'wearing gear' can often lessen the extent of injury, but the kind of force that caused the worst of those injuries will fuck a body up regardless of the outer layer. I know some guys who seem to have it in their heads that since they're usually in full leather it's like a 'suit of invincibility' or something. Best & first line of protection is between the ears. |
