Man...good thing he didn't hit a tree...or splat!

AP1_rock

whoa.

it looked like he was street looging(sp?) That x-game crap where they lay down flat and go down a hill.

i don't think he did that on purpose... no one intentionally drops their bike unless it's to avoid a crash with another object or vehicle.

this guy should consider himself EXTREMELY lucky!!

People that ride bikes around without gear are just asking to die..

Luckily he appeared to be wearing full leathers.

Never ceases to amaze me how many people you see riding around in jeans and trainers.

very good forum..

i think a minimum of a helmet and gloves would be a wise decision. i usually wore a bike jacket as well.

minimum to me is helmet, gloves, jacket and back protector (ive learned from two broken vertebrae spines)

Plus leather pants or jeans with Kevlar pads and boots. Footwear is often overlooked when riding and everyday shoes are not going to save your feet and ankles. I see a lot of idiots riding in shorts and sandals.......no shirt, no socks, no other protection. Apparently they aren't smart enough to realize that if they lay it down it is going to be their flesh getting scraped off and not their leather.
