I'm sorry to hear that. Hope that not permanent injury happen to you and that you will be one of those people who encourages fellow riders to wear the protective gear regardless how short the trip is...

Any road rash? Since you were just wearing a t shirt?

Also lazy to throw on my jacket sometimes cause that thing is heavy so I just throw on my Icon Field Armor vest and helmet and gloves.

Any? I'm sure he's lost a lot of skin sorry to hear about your accident, glad you are ok...

but PLEASE take this is a second chance and wear full gear, no matter what!
