Imagine how a crayon works and how it would look at high magnification being dragged across construction paper.
Now imagine the crayon is made out of meat. How much of your body (meat crayon) that gets put on the asphalt (paper) and how quickly is dependent on how fast you are going. That is why full body leathers/armored clothing is recommend safety gear for motorcycle riders.
