I am pulling the plug on the TT tonight.  It is now raining again in Dewitt. There is rain on parts of the Tag Road course.  There are some nasty red cells floating around and are due to drift over the course around 7pm.  

Even if it doesn't rain while riders are on the course, there is a good chance the roads will be wet from earlier rains.  

Let's hope for good weather next week.

The forecast is not looking good for tonight.   80-85% chance of rain from 4-6pm.  60% hours before and after that.

I'll monitor the situation for improvement and send out an email mid-afternoon.


Hope you all got to watch the Tour's crazy final week.  A bit disappointing to have Mother Nature become such a huge factor.  If you haven't see the video of the hail, snow, flooding and mud slides Stage 19 and 20 (Friday/Saturday), you should look up the vids.  Amazing stuff.   100+ degrees one day and snowing the next !   I have to admit I was disappointed with Bernal winning. I guess I'm in the "wait yer turn sonny!"  camp.   The French have to be depressed.   3 days from the end of the Tour they have 2 candidates for the podium with their first potential yellow jersey winner since Hinault (known as the Bastard,  oh sorry I mean "the Badger")    Pinot looked so strong, but has a quad contusion that would not improve and, of course, Alaphilippe, who finally succumbed on the long climbs.    I'm wondering what team Ineos will do next year with 3 Tour winners on the team?

'til later,

Brian
