Granted, getting stuck in a hail storm sucks. But good luck with that full faced helmet in downtown Sturgis gridlock in the 97 degree heat.

Think I would look for cover and let it pass. I will ride through bees, rain, wind, and other challenges. I draw a line when it comes to lightning and hail.

Drat? Is that a new word? Does it have anything to do with megalithic hailstones?
