Couldn't outride the storm (pics)

Damn storms blew up out of nowhere and rolled in at around 30-40 mph.

Storm clouds getting closer and closer...







Hauling *** back (around 20 mph)



****! Time to get soaked...but still maintained 18-20 mph in the rain!



Rainbow!



Just a little moist from the ride!

All the way up to the back of my helmet!

What amazed me is how well my bike held the road even in the pouring rain and strong crosswinds.

That is hard to understand, yes. Not much grip on road tires.
