This was our ride from Skyline Drive back to VirginiaBeach. Hurricane Sandy decided to be a bitch and come out and play. Ya it sucked.

Black Hills = Hail

Been to Sturgis three times, three times got caught in hail storms of varying degrees. You really can't ride in hail (especially without a helmet!!) it just hurts way too much. Just find a place to hide, preferably hide the bike as well. Been caught in hail in Laconia as well.

Hail happens.

CO seems to get a lot of hail, and this year has been worse than usual. Summer is slow coming this year.

I think I prefer the heavy rains to drizzle. You can feel the heavy rains but the drizzle feels like bee stings.
