Hey,
Out there all day----drove the Yellow truck into a ditch twice---Peak Sports
came and winched the truck out of the snow bank----all is good (just
kidding) crazy driving in a white out at 6:15am in late April.
NO SNOW on the course---1500 ft and it did not stick all day except for the
6-8am time frame---the good thing today is that the hail does not make you
nearly as cold as the rain---so no excuses----maybe the pass might be
tricky----but other than that the course is sweet---Peak Sports will bring a
few extra front fenders for all the slinging and the local Fire Dept is
suppling the water after the event for bike wash.
Allow an extra 15 minutes if you are west of the cascades if its snowing in
the am----
Soup, bread and good times
Mike
