Ballard 2 Saturday at 7:30PM

#1 Post by Iamdanjohnson » Sat Jun 28, 2014 12:56 pm

1:00 PM - No rain so far. I have some signal so I will update when possible as I know we are all wondering. Right now the dirt is perfect and could handle a small amount of rain. Not being negative but realistic when I say all we can do is wait and see.

The course lost a lot of arrows but all are back up and the course is done. It is still six miles in the opposite direction! Go figure!? A bit longer and tougher PW course this time.

Great plaques that say May 2014 on them!!

I'm no weatherman, but after looking at the radar..... I just hope Dan has the RV on high ground.

5:30 PM - Crazy thing is all of it missed us until about 15 minutes ago. Steady rain since then but still not enough to ruin it....yet! I just wish it would rain hard so I know something or just stop and stay away.

Jim, I am at the bottom of an unmowed hay field!!

We post by 6 AM.

7:30 PM - we just rode the ATV and walked various trails. It is wet now but rideable. Not wet enough to ruin the place if we race so we are still on. We will all see how things go overnight. One PW racer was out on that course and did just fine.

I am so tired of postponing. We will run if we possibly can. Most will do well to just check at 6 AM then head this way.
