Going to Gettyburg bike week keep those deers off the road for us.

 

You'll need to show me the math on that one - I'm not convinced.

 

Many times, one slides along on the asphalt. You are moving the asphalt is not. The grinder is an excellent comparison - in reverse - the grinder is moving, you are not.

How do you suppose you lost 95% of your skin in your crash? Do you imagine a bit of it fell off each time you impacted?

 

Most of the riders in my course were experienced. Some of them were even old and experienced enough to know "If ya weer uh hellmutt and ya crash, yer gunna brake yer dang neck!"

Dunno - it's your fantasy, you'lll have to fill in your own blanks.

I never call anyone ignorant or stupid for making an informed choice. I only ever call anyone ignorant or stupid when they display ignorance or stupidity.

 

That was some amazing accident. I crashed in excess of 100 mph, lost very little skin, and not a single cop, EMT, doctor, nurse, or candy striper told me my helmet caused me to tumble down the road any farther than I might have had I not been wearing a helmet.

Losing 95% of your skin is pretty intense.

Did any of the emergency personnel on the scene tell you what the outcome might have been had you been wearing clothes and not landed on a football field covered in cheese graters?

 

Even if they "know little about what had happen", whatever that means, they apparently know very little about what could happen.
