Thanks for the notice Ben.
I have been monitoring road conditions at the lake all week. It's true that
graveling the snowy roads created another problem. However, I will be on the
course all day tomorrow assaulting the roads with a 4 horse blower (kinda
looking forward to that part). I will assure all participants snow and
gravel free conditions. Pot holes and some cracks are inevitable however and
will be marked with spray paint and/or cones. Pre-race instructions will
alert all riders to such conditions. Stay alert, ride safe and communicate.
See you all at the races!
