    Default My Ryker Survived A Hailstorm!

    I came to our RV in Lake Placid this A.M. My wife in Fort Pierce said we were getting hail at our house there. My 9 day old Ryker was in driveway. Afterwards, she said it looked OK, no damage.

    I had just put a windshield on the other day.

    I guess the most vulnerable part would be the taillight lens facing pretty much flat upward.

    My daughter and I got caught in a hail storm on my old BMW R60/6 many years ago. It was only marble size hail but it hurt like Hell and was very noisy in the helmet.
