Hi Folks,

Tomorrow’s weather seems a little iffy at this point but it sounds like the rain may be in the morning and clearing by evening.  Dress in layers for the cooler temperature so that you will be comfortable.  I hope to be there around 5:30 for sign-ins.

The main thing for tomorrow is that you make sure your bike is road worthy.  Check the tire pressures to make sure they are where they should be.  You should find the recommended pressures on the side wall of the tire.  Do you shifters work smoothly?  If they hang up or are sluggish, you may want to try to use some pinpoint lubrication with WD40 to relieve this problem.  If it persists, have you bike shop check it out.  Could be a bigger problem than lube.  Same goes for brakes.  Make sure they stop and release.  If they are badly worn, take them in for replacement.  It’s a lot cheaper than having them replaced on your car or truck.  Lightly lube the chain with a good chain lube.

See you tomorrow night.

Ciao,

Tony
