How bad is late June lightning in the Pikes Peak area?
Posted: Sat Jun 01, 2013 1:34 am
I'm thinking about doing an adventure race in the Pikes Peak area at the end of June.
Recently I started contemplating the lightning threat.
Because it is a 12-hour race, it will entail being out and about from approx. 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and a good portion of that will be on a rolling lightning rod--I mean, on a mountain bike.
Any advice from those with experience?
