Me and some friends met up for a ride to Roosevelt Dam in AZ. One guy brought a friend who shows up at the meeting spot with no helmet. He says he doesn't need one because yadda yadda yadda ...
We tell him" If you are coming with us, you are wearing a helmet."
So he goes back and gets his helmet. To make a long story short..
We are southbound on hwy87 in a righthanded sweeper well into triple digits and his front tire goes flat (according to him .. I think he lost focus). He goes wide and along the guard and is eventually "dismounted" highside and slides and tumbles up the road at least 200ft with the bike still beating him up.
He walks away from this one with some good road rash on the knees but his helmet and leather jacket tell the story of what would have happened had he not wore them.
Wear you gear !!!!!!!!!!!!!
