Yesterday hubby and friend headed out the door to cycle early in the morning. We have had thunderstorms every day since last Friday and Monday was no exception. I was checking weather.com when I heard a rumble in the distance and saw that a thunderstorm was about to hit the area they were cycling in. They were out in the middle of nowhere and were basically lightning rods on wheels. I grabbed the keys, jumped in the car and headed to where they were. I spotted them just as the storm was moving in the area and I rolled the window down and asked if they wanted a ride. No thanks, we'll just keep riding. So I drove past them 3 miles or so and saw a bolt of lightning not far from them. I turned around, headed back to them, stopped the car and jumped out. I explained there was a strong storm but they wanted to ride the remaining 3 miles back to their cars. I followed them and then saw it--a wall of rain not even a quarter of a mile from them. It started pouring buckets and hubby finally relented and jumped in the car. The other one sped up and was absolutely drenched by the time he got to the car.

This morning I checked weather.com and there is an 80% chance of rain/thunderstorms and hubby wanted to ride his motorcycle to work. Why don't men listen??
