I, and a friend of mine, were riding bikes to a mall on a bit of a partial backroad, in north Austin in the summer of ‘78. It was about a 20 mile ride each way. Hey, we were young, strong, and crazy...!!!

As we were on our way back on that stretch of road, a storm blew in. It started to pour buckets, and then about 50 yards in front of us, lightning struck a large oak tree in front of a house, and busted wood flew everywhere...!!!!!

We dropped our bikes and ran to that house...luckily, there was a family there and they let us little dorks

in to ride the storm out...!!!!!

Then, when it was all passed, we got back on our bikes and rode home.
And, yes, we made that ride many times back then, but, that was definitely the most fun one ever...!!!!!!!
