I'm still wearing my teknic leather jacket. It's hot as hell but I feel naked even wearing my mesh jacket after having the armored leather.

You'd be surprised what they can do! I don't know if anyone at the rally noticed but my left hand was cut almost in half and crushed in an accident a few years ago. Chain+sprocket+hand= ouch!

nah its not that bad its only a partial degloving injury. May not have full use of it and some skin grafts but that will be about it.

My friend had a degloving at the job site that went up to the guys elbow, now that was some scary stuff.

I just feel awkward without my leather jacket and gloves and fuck as all hell if I can shift in sneakers or anything other than my boots.

My only weakspot is that I ride in jeans.

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.
