Anyways, my full face helmet and full body racing outfit saved me. I had delayed my trip waiting for the outfit - which worked out well, but the outfit bit it, as did the helmet. I broke my face and skull and jaw, and pretty much every bone above the waist. And, because of the significant brain injury, I lost my license to drive - which is the only thing about the accident that really pissed me off.
