I just wanted to send some appreciation for your products. Nine years ago had been the last time I low sided. Wearing only jeans, I tore up my leg and shins. My riding jacket took the worst of it, yet it protected me.
I decided to upgrade to your tights with far more armor than I'd ever seen on riding gear. Fast forward to yesterday and my desire to get out on a gorgeous day and what seemed like snow free road, overrode my common sense. Rear wheel on my Goldwing slid out from underneath me at about 40 mph, I hit hard and slid on very slushy patch for about 20ft.
Thoughts came lightning fast but the main thing that stood out is that I knew I hit very hard yet I didn't feel a thing. I popped right up and my bike only suffered cosmetic damage.
Though bummed about my bike, I was very happy I'd stuck to the ATGATT rule. Other than very slight bruising on my hip, I was fine, not even sore the next day. I will continue to be a lifelong customer.
