I knew about the Iron Butt rider, as I have been following this for over 10 years.

IH-10 in Tx is very bad for deer. I remember one trip back to San Antonio from Lubbock. We got on I-10 around Junction, Tx and counted 187 deer by the time we hit the NW side of San antonio. That would average out to around 2 deer/mile.

It always makes me sad when I see a biker die because they weren't wearing a helmet. I wouldn't feel comfortable with anything less than a full face helmet. Its part of the uniform. Plus it, to me, adds to the experience. People get to see me on a black bike dressed in black with my face hidden. Like some kind of outlaw haha

I could not agree more with you there. I have ridden my bike a few times without the helmet and I enjoy the feel of the wind a little more on my head, but I will always opt for the helmet when riding.
