every person that has been down, will account for it wouldnt have had there gear on, they wouldnt be here. I am one of those people, i never was always geared up, but i very rarely left with out my helmet. and thats going to be the time something happens.
If it wasnt that i had my helemt on that day, i would not be typeing this. Other people will tell you the same about when they went down.
Moldy just went down, on a turn i bet he takes about 6-10 times a week, and that one day he went with out the jacket, boom.

People will talk there ass off about gear, people will post up pictures, talk about what happened to them, and nothing clicks.....until it happens to them, and if they are lucky,the next time they take the bike out, they will be geared up.

so its kinda those " I can show you,better than i can tell you" type deals.


One thing that will always have me geared up, is from the storys my friends and my brother tell me about my parents in the ICU. Both my parents were in the army, my dad went to war, has killed people,and have seen people get killed. so he is not weak by any means, mentally or physically.when my brother finally got up to the hospital and went to the icu waiting room, my dad couldnt even stand. the day they finaly took me out of the induced coma, was the day they were going to physically remove my mom from the hospital,cause she did not leave and wouldnt leave until i talked to her, that was on the 10th day. My family back home in Puerto Rico, where on the next flight out, my uncle at the airport passed out
My uncle that is in Iraq on his 3rd tour, was on the next flight and took his only leave he had left to come home for 3 days.
Cecil went to the hospital, i believe, not sure if he seen my family.

But just all that, not even accounting of what i had to go through, finding out about my leg, 3 more surguries, the pain, just all the other shit that i had to go through,still having to go through

so could you imangine if i didnt have my helmet on that day, from now on its all the gear or nop ride
