He was hit head on by a car. 11 broken bones. Both arms and one leg but I don't know all the others. His right leg has a rod from the hip to the knee and from the knee to the ankle. His family was called in twice because they thought he was dying. It was bad. We have some really gory pictures, not digital of course. I plan on showing them to my son when/if he wants his first street bike.

I even toss everything on just to go to the gas station (a 10 minute walk).
On very hot days I have the camel back-a-mo -bob.
Same here, except I do exchange the leather jacket for a mesh jacket in these triple digits. Even with a camel pak I can't seem to condition myself to ride in leather in this heat and humidity.

OUCH!!!! That hurt some kinda bad!

Although sometimes it can have a happy ending. Jeeps and I got "serious" after he spent 4 weeks buck naked and ass up in my bed after a wreck took most of the skin of his lower back, ass, and upper legs.
He had on riding pants (not leather) but the asphalt at 85 ate through them and his gloves. It was pretty gruesome and he has some nasty scars to show for it.
