Crazy.

Just starting to go through the Monsoon Season here in Tucson, some crazy storms blow through just about every afternoon now...

Anybody see the 50 mile-wide dust storm that blew through Phoenix this week? :shock:

Rode through a similar storm several years ago on my Sprint ST...

$2500 dollars later, I had a running bike after the ECU apparently wasn't as waterproof as Triumph would have liked it to be...

Thank God for manufacturer's warranties.

They canceled the swim in my duathlon last night (due to lightning/heavy rain) but some crazy mofo's talked the race director into still doing the 5k run. So I did it too, in the middle of the storm! Man, was it a cold and wet race. Oddly enough, it was my fastest 5k run of the year so far. :lol:

Well played Jim. That has got to be the worst mini-movie ever, yet I love it for some odd reason.

Now its our turn on the south side. 1.3 inches in the last hour, 1.1 fell in about 30 minutes. The first pic is the storm approaching, the last two are the aftermath. After all that there is more coming now. Fortunately I am on top of a hill so the water you see is all I will ever get.
