My gear did its job a couple days ago

















My first motorcycling accident in 19 years of riding. As I was entering Hwy101 out of Port Angeles, a car turned left in front of me (said they were blinded by the sun) and I t-boned their Subaru at approx 45 mph. I was launched down the freeway where I skidded a while on my face shield. After tumbling I sprinted off to the side of the road to take stock of any injuries, which there were NONE. I couldn't believe it. Luckily I had full gear on. My bike is a goner so I'm in the market again.

That was a close one! Glad to hear you are OK and were wearing all your gear.
