If you're getting the monster downpour that we had earlier, it won't last. There just isn't enough hail and water in the sky. There'll be lots of standing water though.Thanks, on the "some more" link it quite clearly stated don't cycle! ...how am I gona get home lol
I didn't tag you in the original post. I posted it, then editied it to include you. Which must have sneakily suppressed alerting.For some reason, I did not get an alert when I was tagged by Dogtrousers, a few posts ago ...
Can you tag yourself, @ColinJ? (Yes!)
Ah!I didn't tag you in the original post. I posted it, then editied it to include you. Which must have sneakily suppressed alerting.
That's a false argument because most people have enough sense to avoid being in exposed places in torrential rain and thunderstorms! If you worked out how many people who did stand out in the open on hilltops in thunderstorms got hit, you wouldn't fancy doing it!Google for something like "cyclist killed by lightening" then compare your results with a search for something like "cyclist killed by car".
If you think cycling on roads shared with cars is an acceptable risk then you don't need to worry about lightening.
But don't blame me if you get wet.![]()
That's gotta hurt!Be careful when taking a comfort break: http://metro.co.uk/2007/09/24/bikers-penis-hit-by-lightning-176741/
