Wow, that was a beautiful drive to Hagg Lake. We were almost there
driving through sunshine with some snow on the ground when we saw cars with bikes on driving towards us. After two cars gave
us the thumbs down sign it started to snow quite heavily. In just a
short distance it got much worse. We turned around and headed home.
The teenager got to drive on the way back (once we were out of the
snow) and we got donuts on the way home. Now the little one is napping
and we are cleaning house.
I hate to see a race canceled but it
was the best call. It is a tough decision I have been in that position
with Beautiful Estacada Time Trial. We looked at the whole course
checked the bridges for ice. We decided based on the road conditions,
wet but no ice or snow, that it was safe to race. Our turnout was low
but we had fun and in a couple of hours all the snow was gone.
