prayin' ... prayin' ... prayin' AND my fingers are crossed! Either way, I'll be there! Inda is leading the way so I guess that makes it the same for him.

Well, thanks to all the knowledge and help from Jim, we got my rear shock back together! Just need to charge it up with some Nitro at work tomorrow, and put the ole red girl back together. Test ride Sunday! One week people!
Yes, they really do let me drive the Train!

For all of you who will be at the H&M Trails this weekend, my mother has put all of us on a prayer chain at her church to keep us all safe and free from injury during our travels and our stay.
I'm not much into that kind of stuff, but I love my mom.

Well, I dinged a rib in a hare scramble yesterday. Austin and I are still coming to H&M but I'm likely to be more careful (read: slower) than normal. I'd like to say that my poor showing was due to the downed tree that ejected me off my KDX on lap 1 but this old man is getting slower and slower anyway! Sigh. Austin is having a good year though . . . with two 2nd places in Lite C he's pretty happy.
Good or bad weather . . . let's rock & roll this weekend!!
Jeb: Good turn out yesterday in New Albany with nearly 140 bikes running the 8 mile course. The property was simply awesome. You missed a good one!

I think Inda would agree with me that for us to drive all that way and spend that kinda money just to sit under a tarp for four days would be very redundant. I'll check the weather again in a few days.
What do all of you think?

Congrats to Austin . . . again!! And to you for hanging in there. Sorry I missed it, I did have a great time riding in Brooksville though but there's a ting of remorse for missing it.

I'm definitely going to be there. Different weather forecast sites state different things: intellicast shows rain everyday, accuweather.com shows partly cloudy Fri, Sat, Sun days with some rain Friday night and Sun night. We'll know Friday and then it could change after that. I've always noticed that when the percentages are 50/50 and different sites are reporting different things it's a tossup as to the actual outcome.
Whatever the case I'm not going to be under a tarp, that's for sure! Just have to ride a bit slower

Rick, if it's sloppy at H&M you're going to wish you stuck with the stock gearing is my guess. With the shorter gearing it's going to be slippity-do-da . . . may wanna ride the green tank after all.
