[Apr 21, 2017] The SHOP Spring open ride (Marion NC)

[DSM Turbos]

Finally it's time for the ride. Could not have come at a better time as work has me about killed. See you guys on Sunday.

They posted on FB they aren't going to let people ride Sunday due to weather

We decided to not have any organized riding on Sunday due to high likelihood of sustained rain overnight Saturday and Sunday combined with likely low turnout on Sunday as a result.

We wish we could do something about Mother Nature but she's got a mind of her own.

Sorry for the late notice for those who had plans of wheeling Sunday. We've been keeping an eye on things for a few days now and feel this is the best decision all the way around.

So what time are we wrapping things up on Saturday?

 

[frankenyoter]

Ride as long as you want, just no night wheeling.

 

[Jeff B]

if anybody from Lincolnton is going, there are some light fixtures that need to get to @ChrisM. Please pm me or both of us. Thanks

I'll be up there today later. Probably after 5. Would it be worth going there then? Or just show up early Saturday?

I'd roll in in if I were you. You'll have a chance to scout around and pick the best lines before the masses arrive tomorrow!

[justjeepin86]

Hasn't rained in black mountain since about 1 last night. Almost looks like the fog is going to burn off.

Hope to see everyone shortly

It was nice and slick up there yesterday, but a great time as always!

Broke the main leaf within 5 minutes. No cool story, did it on the main trail being a ding dong. Still had a good time just cruising around watching the rest of the day. Thanks again for the open ride and see y'all next time.
