...no offense meant for Mike Wankum, who is too good a guy to beat up for being a combination road racer / weather man. In spite of the rather dire forecasts, Friday went off really well and we did not get any of the wet stuff until late in the day on Friday. Most riders got a bunch of dry sessions, and it turned out to be a great day.
The on/off forecast got us again on Saturday, and we almost got everything off - missing only the Dash for Cash. The call was made to move it to Sunday, and as with any decision, there will always be a number of opinions. I think that Tommy giving riders the option to run the race Saturday or Sunday was a good thing. I appreciate that the higher ups enlisted the riders to determine what they wanted to do. Sunday was supposed to be wet (according to the weather man), but by race two things were dry for the rest of the day again...and we got a shower right after the races ended.
All in all, I think we lucked out......
