I don't like to reschedule a ride that people are planning on but, as the day turned out, we really didn't want to be out in it.  There were tempting, blue-sky parts of the day interrupted by severe storms with hail.  Watching the afternoon radar and the clock, we definitely would have been caught in some interesting weather today. :o

There were a couple of people who couldn't make the ride if it was today and now a few conflicts for next Sunday.  I can have two (maybe three?) ride dates to accommodate anyone who wants to support St. Jude.  Let me know about June 9(Su), 16(Su) or 22(Sa). (For me, July is pretty well booked.)  

And also who can make it next Sunday.  (I think I heard Bob promise a beautiful, sunny day! ;D)

I'll be there and then Monday we can all go on the Memorial Day ride lead by Chapter 404.

Plus, Saturday is the presidents meeting with a Vice President's ride afterward.  I will be off all three days because of the holiday week-end.  Of course only if I get in a little outside chores around this place.  Been so much rain lately, haven't had time to do much that needs to be done.

See you all Saturday, Sunday and Monday.   ;D

The ride is on right up until the point that its cancelled ... I'll make the call by 9am.  We lucked out today and I've got my fingers crossed for tomorrow.

It'll be posted here and through the MsgCtr as a text update.

Bring your pledge forms.

Here's the radar image I'll be watching over the next 90 minutes.  We may skim the north edge of the lower system, but we'll see how the one from the west tracks and develops ...
