RE: Lightning
Wrong, it will and has killed motorcyclists. Just this past spring there was a guy zapped on his bike.

RE: Lightning
Not safe. But better than the guard rail sitters under the overpass.
My personal strategy is to keep moving. I've always assumed I'm not going to get hit. ( I've never won the lottery either). So far I've been right. And I've been able to see trees exploding beside the road just a few feet in front of me. Actually, I'm rethinking this logic of mine as I write.
Intersections and parking lots will get you sooner. How's that for rationalizing?

RE: Lightning
Wow- major major bummer. I have been in many a rain storm and a few with lightening flashing all around but never heard of anyone actually getting hit until reading that one.
I don't like the mental image of a pile of carbon on a motorcycle seat. If I was one of those guys with a novelty helmet with the spike on top I think I would be looking for a big grounding strap to drag behind me!
