Leather is good.  :)  (And kevlar, and carbon fiber, and....)

I was doing about 45 when I got hit.  I didn't have any injuries from
the road that I'm aware of, but the station wagon that hit me fucked me
up *real* good.  I was in hospital a week on that one, and I'm still not
fully healed.

It's not the road/track that gets you.  It's the other vehicles.
