450 miles in torrential rain, thunder and lightning. Kept having to pull over as the car I was following was having thermostat problems.
We'd outrun the storm, stop to let the car cool down, the storm would pass over us, we'd get back on the road, catch up to the storm, outrun the storm, stop to let the car cool down, the storm would pass over us, we'd get back on the road, catch up to the storm, outrun the storm, stop to let the car cool down, the storm would pass over us ...
This lasted all 450 miles. Was on a Katana 1100 doing 80 mph with an inch of water to keep up with the car I was following.
The only thing that didn't get wet was the inside of my mouth. It was bone dry from the stress of trying to stay on the bike!!!
The daft thing is, I actually enjoyed myself.

Go figure.
Long answer to a short question.
