Lightening Storms never last very long. If they come up during practice or race, we will just delay until it (the lightening) passes. No cancelling for lightening, only postponing if we absolutely have to!

See you tomorrow morning!

Crouch next to an oppenent and encourage him to raise his hand to ask questions :D

Seriously, weather report I saw this morning put the t-storms Fri evening to Sat. morning, so it shouldn't be an issue.

Sucks to be riding a steel Dh bike.....

:D

A thunder storm will help the beacon course.....it is better than it being dry.

Those thunderstorms are happening right now, as I type in good ole' Slokane. My cat is freaking out....like he's never been trough a thunderstorm before. He's 7.

Holy Crap!!!!!!!!!!! Did it just storm hard here. Lots of lightening and Thunder. It was a good show. But the best part is-it must have dumped an inch of rain. The course is going to be sweet. Any one sitting on the fence wondering if Beacon is the place to be this weekend, get your asses here! The racing is going to be off the hook!

Can you say, peanut butter weekend

nah, the sandy soil will be just right.

We had lightning about 1/4 mile from the house, killed the internet for a bit.
