Well, it was gonna happen someday, and Sunday was that day. I hit some unexpected pea gravel in the road. I was a slightly downhill left hand turn marked 15MPH.
It's mostly cosmetic. However, it will likely be totaled. I'm hoping they give me $1 short of that.
Now, how did I fare? Damn good. My right hip hit first. I think I bounced and then my onto my back. I didn't go very far and did not hit very too hard. I will be sore next week, but my gear did its job. I was wearing my Alpinestars BAT leather pants and leather jacket with my MSR enduro jacket over it for warmth.
Minor damage to the jacket.
The bad news is that my memory card flaked out and I did not get it on video.
Oh well. Be careful out there!
