How would you say your riding gear held up?
Thanks Dave. The riding gear held up very nicely, although the total slide was not very far. I looked at the front of my jacket and riding jeans and both show light dirt scuffing but no real damage. The area where my jacket abraded my forearm would be a good place to look for damage to the jacket but there seems to be hardly a scratch there. Weird.
Ticked at the scuff marks on my new scratch-free helmet though, but thankful that it did its job. Still don't know why the idiots on cruisers don't wear gear, especially helmets. My crash could happen to any one of them and probably does.
