87% chance of rain at 9 a.m. tomorrow.  Which begs the question, do I pay attention to them and miss the opportunity to ride like last week, or ignore the sorry, lousy liars and just take the bike down anyway?  Hmmmm.... Smiley

Which weather site are you using?
Accuweather says 8:00 a.m.
I am hoping it will dry out a little by say 10:30.

Weather Channel (www.weather.com).  Doesn't matter, they all suck.  I'm going to hope for the same thing, and since I just bought an SUV, I can carry the Saber out of the weather. Smiley See y'all in the mornin'.

Despite the promise of rain, seven clowns rode this morning.  
I ended up with 40 miles and 'barely" got wet.   Just after we finished, the rain really started. Talk about timing.

We would love to start riding Saturday clown rides, but I haven't been keeping up on the forum like I should.  And about a week ago Vicky broke her foot.  I expect it will be another 2 or 3 weeks before we are riding again.  Please keep posting them.  Richard

My condolences to Vicky.
By the time her foot heals it should be a little warmer.

With John riding a CA2, Jay on an XStream, and now Thomas on the SXP, what's the typical rolling pace and distance of the Clowns these days???

Lets just say the potential for speed is there somewhere. We will keep looking for it.

On the path and Trail we typically run between 10 and 15 mph. Coming back down the Trail from 635, a couple of us may run 17 to 19 mph on the flats. Not all Clowns ride the same distance. Those that elect to ride up the Trail will typically ride 35 to 40 miles. Some of us may make a lap before breakfast and a one after returning from 635 for a total of as much as 56 miles.  
 
If Hurricane Dan makes an appearance, he will be up on the road racing roadies at light speed.  Smiley

This time the Clown ride will meet at Barbec's at 11:30 for lunch, then ride.  Should be a little warmer but not so warm that all the walkers come out.
Some of us may start riding before lunch.

I dont know. I was out at WRL and it's a mess. Tree branches are falling in alot of places, it made me keep from going under any of them. Might be ok for the mountain bikes.

Unless the sun comes out early and brings the temp up to 70 real quick, it is just too wet.
Anyone for breakfast???

I'm planning on riding down and meet up for breakfast.  Unfortunately Vicky is sick with what appears to be either a mild case of the flu or a very bad cold.    Smiley

Well . . .  The first clown (and anyone else interested) is going to be at Barbec's at 9:00 a.m.  After breakfast we will do a few laps and maybe catch the trikes going around the lake.
