Bud/Steve,
 
I just watched the 6pm weather forecast.  While Saturday is going to start off cold and cloudy, and not get much above 50, Sunday is suppose to start off cold, but be sunny with a high of 70.  So how about if we ride this Perm on Sunday with a start time around 9am?

I hate to start a 200k that late, especially on a Sunday. What does everyone else think? Any ideas?

I'll start as early on Sunday as everyone desires.  I have plenty of cold weather clothing I can take off as it warms up.

9 would be fine with me.  Anything less than 11 hours keeps us in the daytime.  Though maybe 8:30 would be better?

The forecast still sounds miserable, so I'll likely be pulling the plug on this ride. I do live near the start though, so if someone still wants to ride, I could bring waiver and cards to the start.
 
I'll probably just see if Rose wants to get up at the crack of noon Sunday and do a short ride close to home, unless someone else has a better idea.

I still need my 200k for the month, so if you don't mind, hold it for Sunday for me.

You might email Jerry and ask, but I think if you change dates, you start from scratch.

Well, Sunday is looking better and better.  Does anyone  have Jerry's e-mail or phone?  I can't access google groups from work, and I'll be here till 10-11pm.

Yeah, the morning low forecast is all the way up to 36 degrees, now. Be sure you don't overheat before noon.
