i'd seen this before on another site too. I got it pretty bad on my hands when i removed my gloves as a pillion because it was too warm, then had an off. And it's true they scrub your agonising wounds with a wire brush to get the gravel out and then douse them in iodine while they're still raw. A very hard lesson learned. Just don't go there.
