Thank Christ you walked away!
That pic of your helmet is pretty unsettling.
I ordered my full-face last week. It's on it's way as I write.
I'm not super experienced on a bike. I probably should've been wearing a full-face since the day I started riding.
Again.. really glad to read you rode away Judge1989.
Thanks for the support guys! I catch grief from a lot of the guys I ride with for wearing a ff helmet, but after they saw the picture they all backed off. Lol

I never understood people who give others $hit for wearing helmets. It's such a high school thing to do.
Anyway, you might want to consider the next time you are coming up over a hill at 70 to prepare for the possibility of something being in your path. I'm not saying suddenly start breaking but at least be prepared for the worst and hope for the best.
Glad you are OK and smart move on the helmet
