Dio, what are the odds that your n00b rider ends up under a truck somewhere?

I ride in armoured synthetic gear or leather, full face helmet, boots gloves etc.  The whole farging nine, even in summer. 

I met with an old college buddy of mine, and he was riding his BMW R1200RT...and he also wore the whole setup. It was 95 degrees out, too. I was glad to see that he was taking the right precautions, as I can personally relate just how much the road can do to exposed skin (and even skin under faux protection like denim).

It gets god awful hot in my Roadcrafter, but not half so hot as it gets when your skin is being ground off by road surface.

You know what they do when they give you a skin graft?  Most people get that they take a piece of skin from one place and put it in another.  That's true, but it's more complicated.  As I understand it, the piece they remove is taken into a lab and run through what amounts to a press that  perforates and stretches it, so that you get a much bigger piece of material than you removed.  The thinned-out, punctured skin is then grafted to the damaged flesh and the holes are gradually filled with skin regrowth/scar tissue.  This takes time, during which bandages have to be constantly removed and reapplied...excruciating pain every time.

No farging thank you.

I love starting social debates. It all started with my roomates and one of thems girlfriend complaining that black people dont tip (they work in center city at valet and as a waitress). So I proposed it to the 2 blacks here, with igy being slightly more black because he's just that cool.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

It gets better.  If you need a lot of skin, they get it off cadavers.
