Hehe, speaking of wallets, etc... mine was gone. The CHP was able to find it and gather up my ID, etc while they were out in the lanes examining the scene. In the future I'll be putting my wallet in the zipper pocket of my jacket I think

A friend of mine that used to race motorcycles convinced me to always wear protective gear. I wear leather jacket, Gusset kevlar lined jeans, boots, gloves almost all the time. Ocassionally when it's extremely hot, I'll skip the jacket but never when riding in heavy traffic or on the freeway.

I would find that compact very embarrassing and hard to explain---You know you have just given me an evil thought. The next time one of my friends goes down and tells me about it I am going to have to ask him about the rumor of the ground down compact found near the wreck site.
Not well me thinks...

Better perhaps than my bare, road-rashed *** should I go down in just my regular jeans and chaps. 
But I suspect it and the cell phone would be torn off in the slide much like Arizona's wallet.

I've learned so much on this forum from all of you in the past two years that I just figured I'd pass along my own experience in the event it helps someone else here. Maybe by putting this little event in the back of their mind will make them a better rider having the insight of what kinds of things happen to us riders out there on the roads. Watch out for what's behind you also - I generally do this myself pretty well I think but in this particular instance I guess this one got past me and then GOT me.
