rode home from work one summer afternoon. it was a hot sunny day. then came the thunderstorms. the torential rain was OK what was not OK was this.

on a lonely country road with some trees along the road, I hear rolling thunder overhead moving perpendicular to my direction of travel, and it sounds so ominous and low right over my head but passing from my left, to over my head, and then moves to my right. rolling the whole time - it seems like a lifetime but maybe was only 20 seconds. during that whole time as I heard it rolling approaching, passing overhead and rolling to my right I was convinced I would die that day. I guess I should have bailed off the bike, huh?
