Default leather is your best friend

Today I rode my bike a little and came to a turn that I juust judged wrong, and I low slid my bike. The most puzzling part were my injuries. I fell onto my butt whith my wrist also sliding, it took me about 20 minutes to realize that I landed on my leather wallet. Somehow I kept my torso up so no injuries there. My glove has a bit of wear on the wrist and my butt is perfect, the wallet litteraly saved me a trip to the er. My jeans were in shreads and from now on I'm not going to think about getting on without some leather. I always heard that to wear jeans incase you go down, but I think those jeans protected my skin for about the first inch that I slid.

Well there is a miraculous story of a how a $35 wallet saved me a LOT of time and money, and how of all the place to fall it would be on that tiny piece of leather.
