Glad your gear saved you from losing some skin..............sucks about the slide though....
One thing's for sure, you've definately got some experience when it comes to pavement.........

At least you've got some time to mend the scraped up bits before the rally.............It could have been worse, and actually happened AT the rally......
I'm sure you'll be sore for a week or so. Heal fast! :drinks:

nope.  the blister i had on saturday has healed, and no other injuries or pain.  it really is amazing the difference between a lowside and a highside crash.

Have to agree with you Dean.  I've tried both and much prefer lowsides. 

Glad you weren't injured. Now get that bike patched up for the rally!
