Another rainy day

At least it held off until after 1pm today.  But most of the riders faced many miles of rain and heavy traffic toward the end of the 93 mile ride.  I think that they were relieved to get to the hotel in one piece.  Several thought that we were lucky with no accidents today.  I should clarify yesterday's comment about not riding in the rain.  I do not intend to ride in the rain but it was all hands on deck for the staff yesterday.  We are all rookies at it and need to become a smoothly functioning team.  Mac is the busiest of all with his mechanic duties as the rain likely makes the riders more aware of little things they may not notice otherwise.  Robin and Carol have become fast friends and work well together at the SAGs.

Dinner was great tonight.  One of the best bike dinners I have had.  Several riders were also very pleased.

The precipitation probability is 98% at departure time tomorrow.  Why don't the forecasters just say 100%?  For our sake, I hope that the 2% follows us all day.
