Armor, always

Hey everybody, I'll elaborate more later when I have more time, but in a nutshell had my first spill last night. Was going about 45-50 (the posted speed limit) when a deer jumped right in front of me and stopped. Naturally I tried slowing and swirving but the damn deer freaked and ran towards my light. Long story short, I got away with some bruises and a bit of rash on my thumb (gloves tore through) and knees, but if it weren't for my leather armored jacket...shudder

No matter how safe you drive sometimes acts of god just happen, always stay armored!

-Alex
