It was raining when I left my house, and I was hoping no one was at the park.  No one was there but it wasn’t raining either.  As it got closer to 6 several people showed up.  So, the ride was a go.  Ten riders left the park.  No rain.  The rain held off until we got to Jack’s Reef.  The last 6-7 miles in the rain.  Once we got back to the park the rain stopped.  Had trouble getting my helmet off, since I couldn't feel my fingers.  Most did 23 miles.  No real proble ...Continue Reading

There is a light shower on parts of the TT course currently.  The forecast calls for a chance of showers at 3pm and 5pm...  but, it is a fluid situation (pun intended).    There will be a 9-11mph NW breeze that should aid drying the road out if showers do occur.  I'll head up to the course and blow off any debris.We'll keep our fingers crossed that the roads dry out.Brian On Monday, August 19, 2024 at 12:00:20 PM CDT, Brian Goetke <goetke1@PROTECTED> wrote: Whoa!  Who deci ...Continue Reading

The conditions Tuesday night were pretty much as expected.  Mid 70s with approx 8mph from the NW.Five TTers rolled to the start line to do their best personal Remco impersonation. Mike H decided to blow the dust off his ole TT rig and let it loose on the TT course.  He galloped through the course in a FMT of 25:35 (23.46mph).  That was almost 2 minutes faster than his road bike with aerobars time.  Ken took his newly acquired road bike out for a test ride before he moves over some of the components f ...Continue Reading
