It rained!

[Omega Man]

When I mention how high the water has gotten before, I meant the rooster-tail from the water hitting the awning posts.

I didn't know how bad it was going to get so I put the bike next to that car. Our neighbor had told us there was some flooding nearby.

~O~

Cool video. Quite the flash flood. Can be dangerous out in the desert in some places I hear. Have ya had any close calls out there?

we had a chapter meeting on a afternoon it hailed. the bike was covered and since the weather was nasty we drove my truck...
had a great meal (chinese) and a good meeting. totally missed the weather outside.
a few days later I was out working on something and noticed alot of bumps in the wifes buick!
I almost flipped... then I got to thinking about that nasty thunderstorm... yup, the bike was right next to the car...
seriously the car is bumps everywhere.. not a scratch on the bike...

Personally hate getting caught in the rain. Bikes & rain don't mix.

I ride mine 8 miles to work every day. I carry rain gear but have only worn it once. If you're moving the fairing and lowers keep you dry. Only get wet at traffic lights. I kinda enjoy riding in the rain.
