.... yep roadrash is one of the most painful and potentially disfiguring injuries you can get.

It makes my blood run cold to see some of the morons out there in t shirts,no gloves,etc. Worse is when they have some pretty young pillion who has no idea what danger they are in.

++1 Grant,
this is a hobby horse of mine.

You only have to see it in hospital which I have on more than one occasion to know you should be as well armoured and covered as you can afford.

I hope the poor guy recovers quickly but he will be scarred for life and will never ride in the skin so to speak again.
