Holy shit, I drug a knee!

Wasn't even trying. Went for a ride after work, little exploratory sortie. First part was hideously graveled. So much so that I was terrified to turn around and have to relive it, and praying for a numbered state road that would be reasonably clean. Found one, headed north and then east. Couple nice curves on 40 toward frostburg. Top of a hill, left turn marked 30mph. I got into it a little faster than I intended, but knew I could hold it. Just smooth, hanging out, trail braking, then throttle up at the apex. Must have just grazed it. Made a couple stops in town and rode home before I even realized it when I was taking my overpants off. (Icon Automag are great

) The stretchy pleated leather knee has a nice new scuff on it!

I do have. A* Track pants. I wasn't riding that hard...just used more lean than I planned. There was no impact or drag really- just glad I wasn't wearing reinforced jeans!
