Riding in bad weather

Post by JeffStrom » Mon Jun 17, 2019 5:07 am

As if you needed another reason not to do it...

From the article...
"FHP says the 45-year-old man was traveling southbound on I-95 when it happened. An off-duty Virginia state trooper saw the lightning hit the man, according to FHP."
