Anthony, I rode that hill on Saturday. I have to admit I kind of wimped out and started way down on it. That section of guard rail freaks me out a little. I keep thinking I am going to end up in the drink which is 20-30 ft below the road and would result in probably serious injury. However I think a...

Its hard to tell, No doubt its going to be windy. So if the wind is in our faces expect a tighter course. If its at our back expect a looser course. It is so hard to predict what the weather will be, r if the pavement will be dry. I guess it depends on when the rain stops on Friday. With 20+ mph win...

Now, now my children settle down. There is no rain date on Sunday. If it rains on Saturday as far as I am concerned the race is cancelled. The reason for this is I cannot commit to two days. I have one or two Saturdays that I know I can skate per month. If it rains on one of those days then that is...

Reguarding Jack Smth's post on the "Random Slalom Topics" forum.
