Bad Day

But it could have been worse!.
Woke up at 5 am to find bike in floodwater up to the axels.
Pushed it to safety, half an hour later and it would have been under 2 foot of river water and mud. Guess today was my lucky day.

And that is why I will never live in a possible flood zone! Glad to hear you caught it in time.

Certainly could have been much worse if you had gotten to it later.
