So this afternoon I was tooling around on my 29er near my house, happy that it wasn't raining, but knowing full well a thunderstorm was forecast for the afternoon. I was marveling at the sky while pretending curbs were log crossings when I realized, "hey, it's getting seriously dark...and that's the direction I have to ride to get home!" So I booked it about a mile, full sprint, 32:18 gearing as fast as I could pedal as fat rain drops were hitting me on the head and distant lightning flashed ominously ahead. I made it through my front door just as the hail began to fall. Close call, but very exciting!
