Looking good

Yep, it's looking good. Maybe this time the course will not have to be changed due to wet conditions and the racers will get the Knolls Full Monty.

I am always the most nervous when the weather report shows fair weather 1 week early. It usually pours all day. I trust the weatherman just a little more than your average politician.

GOING TO BE A KILLER RACE

I hope you didn't wish this on us...but we're seeing some deterioration in the forecast. Could still be great, but may turn. Of course, sand will be good, but the flats could get sketchy.

I just got back from course marking at Knolls and here is the conditions report. There has not been any rain out there. The flats are dry and perfect. It's too bad the race wasn't today. Conditions were ideal. In fact, Friday will bring on more drying and it might actually get a little dusty. The forecast is for some moisture on Saturday, but I don't think it will amount to much and if it does, the ground has some room to soak it up before it gets nasty. It's going to be a good race.

Sweet. I feel like a kid on Christmas eve.

As of now, its appears that the storm is approaching and going to be here/Knolls about noon. Hopefully it stalls or misses us. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I sure hope it's not too wet. There aren't many things I dread more than cleaning my bike after riding in the mud at Knolls. That stuff is toxic!

Either way, the race itself should be fun!

Current forecast for Knolls

Well looks like we will have some snow and rain. I am hoping that it dosen't turn out like 2008 videos show. Either way I hope I can see when I am riding. see you all there!

Maybe the conditions will mimic the Knolls race in the fall of 08'!
