(Click on image to enlarge)  Motorcycle ready to go, parked next to it's brother Bimmer.  Of course, some very bad weather is moving in as I try to leave, forcing me to change my plans and reverse the route.  The weather is worse out west, so I decide to head south to New Mexico, then west to Phoenix.  Unfortunately, I miss my weather window, and get caught in a terrible hail / lighting / torrential downpour as I get to the Denver Tech Center.  Stupidly I continue on.  Breaking through the weather as I reach Monument, the traffic speeds pick up, until I reach a complete stop due to an accident in Colorado Springs.  Not a good way to start the trip >:(
