    Me too! Especially since I'm on a steel bike! A little rain, however, isn't really a big deal...

    Definitely get out of the way of electricity. Isn't hail a frequent companion of thunder storms? While it's "safe" to ride in hail, it hurts like heck when it hits your skin. Pull over for that too!

    I told like to ride in a stormy weather period. In AZ roads are pretty dry and when it rains it gets really slicky and dangerous. A little bit of water stirrs the oil so it is like being on ice. Plus, rains in AZ start with nasty dust storms and it is hard to keep balance.
    Just be safe!
