Motorbike accident while wearing my Gerbings at 130 km/h [80 mph]

I'm glad I can still tell you this...

Friday 28th of November 2008 I got hit by a car on the highway towards Antwerp, at that time I was driving 130 km/h [80 mph] and wearing my Gerbings. The car hit me from the right when he drove alongside at a much higher speed. I never saw it coming but the impact was violent. Next thing I knew I was sliding over the highway. In an attempt to get up and run towards the side of the road, I flipped over, broke a bone in my back and continued to roll because of the speed I still had. I finally came to a stop and ran to the side of the road to be safe. The car that hit me didn't stop and drove off.

Apart from the broken bone in my back I sufferd no other injuries. I only had my Gerbings for a month but they protected me under very heavy conditions from injuries to my hands. I'd like to share my story because I believe that a personal experience is the best reference. I also included some pictures of my Gerbings.

Yours,
