I've got I've that looks a bit like this. ATGATT means a full-face helmet. That's why I have a face, on account of using it for an unconventional braking technique after a high-side caused by getting sideswiped by an SUV.

"unconventional braking technique", lol, I think we've all used that on occasion.

And we all have brown pants because of it.

Oh, I was talking about using my face to reduce my speed as I was going down the highway, with my bike catching up to me. No brown pants but a good 18hr hospital stay.
