Right.
Ha! That's what I call motorcyclists with no helmets! Been down twice, once with a helmet and once way back when they pretty much didn't exist (yeah I'm old). Both times did a lot of damage, road rash, torn bicep, cracked ribs, broken teeth when my mouth slammed shut on impact, but I've never hit my head, thank god, or the state highway dept. would be really P.O.ed. with me.
