Re: 1st Annual RideForum Enduro Skills Challenge!
Either way works for me. Last I heard it was 1 to 2 inches of sleet and snow over the next 24 hours. I guess another date would be my first choice so we could have a few people show up on Friday for a little camp out, and revelry.

I'm just a lookie-loo, so, any date, or time is fine - although I had hoped to ride the bike up that way instead of the car.

Re: 1st Annual RideForum Enduro Skills Challenge!
Frankly the whole weekend looks screwed to me. Even my backup plan of heading to Chadwick on Sun does not look promising. Most likely will be raining. At best, a muddy mess from prior rain.
I really want to ride, but I'm not sure this weekend is going to work out. I'm not bowing out. I'm willing to make a last minute decision right up to Sat or Sun morning...but if it's going to be a sloppy and/or sticky mess...no thanks.
IF...the rain clears up on Sun and the temp warms up a bit, it could be a good gravel road ride day--stay off min maint.
Man I really want to get my dirt bike out!

Re: 1st Annual RideForum Enduro Skills Challenge!
You should be fine at Chadwick if you're willing to go there. I've ridden there in a literal flash flood watch on a Saturday when they got several inches of rain the night before. Rain doesn't really affect it too bad with all the rock. As for the temperature- that is a call only you can make!troy wrote:Even my backup plan of heading to Chadwick on Sun does not look promising.

I might be up for a big bike ride on Sunday if anyone else is considering it.troy wrote:IF...the rain clears up on Sun and the temp warms up a bit, it could be a good gravel road ride day--stay off min maint.

May 18th is my only bad day................ Step Son's wedding. My Wife's X and I set up to wear matching Tuxs. I'm cool with it, but I'm sure it's making him Crazy!

Could we bring our bikes to your house Troy and did an enduro challenge in your backyard? Your neighbors wouldn't mind would they?
Ahhh, pre-mix!!

Ok guys, I want to try again for next Saturday the 11th. If that day doesn't work out due to weather or other obligations, the next available weekend for Troy and I will be sometime in June. Feel free to chime in if you can or can't make it next weekend.

Re: 1st Annual RideForum Enduro Skills Challenge!
KC, I would love to come out and win the skills challenge, but... next weekend is mother's day weekend. To make it even more impossible for me to come out, my wife's birthday is the 11th and my mother's is the 12th. Take pictures for me and maybe next year???

Re: 1st Annual RideForum Enduro Skills Challenge!
Bob, the odds are looking pretty good that you will win the 1ST Place Trophy !!
My next available weekend for the 1st Annual Rideforum Enduro Skills Challenge is JUNE 15.
The trophies have 2013 engraved on them so we have plenty of time left.
