I ran the gauntlet this afternoon with the weather. I knew storms were predicted but my PMS got the better of me. Alas, I had to turn around...before the interesting bits even started. Bugger. Massive black clouds advancing toward me. Oh well, that's what happens when you know you're chancing your luck. Anyway, the storm caught me...a raging hailstorm reducing the viz to dangerous levels....but I was now going in the same direction so I knew ( hoped) I'd outrun it, which I did. It was quite surreal. These two measley pics are after outrunning it, getting back to George as fast as possible.
PS - did you know....MX pants, especially when soaking wet, offer very little impact protection to objects such as hail stones in the crotch area....I had to crouch forward to shield my nether regions.
