Alright everybody. Time to have some fun for a good cause. This weekend is the Virgil City Charity Poker Run and Hare Scramble. Saturday is your chance to have fun, maybe win a little $$$ and most of all get your course knowledge for Sunday's race. Since no one (except those of us who cut it in) has been on this brand new course everybody should be out Saturday to see what's up.

Depending on what Dan does for the race the course is about 7.5 miles of just about everything. Tight woods, fast and flowing woods, elevation, technical, open grass for a drag race and lots of good spectator spots for the riders to show off. Then top that off with the fact it "ALL" goes to charity and you cant pass it up! Besides, after the races Todd #1063 had this past Sunday at Merwin he could use all the support he can get! Probably a good thing he is promoting and not racing. It will give him a chance to heal up. Boy, his wife Susan is going to ring my neck!

There will be great camping open Friday. Its easy to get to and get in & out of and there will be activities for us big kids as well as the little kids so bring the family and make a weekend of it.

Sure hope to see everyone there. Hadnt raced for a while until Merwin and it felt good and I realized how much I missed all you knuckleheads! Lets all do it again along with the poker run this weekend.
