Helmutt Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Sunday looks to be a better forecast, but Saturday isn't too hateful - mostly a wet morning commute there. Although the shaded roadways will surely stay wet into the early afternoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimTheAzn Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Ughhh, whyyyyy. In a streak of decent days of course the ONE day we have something planned. -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Yeah, not looking great. 40-55% rain/thunder chance from 8am-3pm from New Concord down through McConnelsville/Marietta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue-yamaR6s Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Not a fan of wet weather riding especially a whole day of it. I would vote to pick Sunday instead...understanding schedules for many would change. Weather looks to be wetter the further south you go.

theroamr Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I'm with Tonik and Tpoppa on this one. Prefer Sunday but will ride sat if have to. Just hate wet roads, just can't run a fun pace. Looks like all roads will be wet all day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekClouser Posted May 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I'm kind of in agreement with you guys so far. Final decision will be made later tonight around 7ish. Just so everyone is prepared, I'm leaning more towards Sunday at this current point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in either way, but won't leave the house in a downpour...just a person thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heagachongoose Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 It won't be much better Sunday to be honest. I doubt there will be enough heat to dry things out enough in the denser regions by Sunday, but at least we won't get rained on. Or not as much. It is Spring after all. Precipitation happens. Sunday is definitely looking friendlier for the long distance commuters. Why don't we just stick this one out and enjoy what you can, and we (I if need be) can plan another ride for later during the Summer?

ricer1 Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Let's leave early enough to arrive at the church parking lot at 8:00AM, I'll bring my laptop (video pass) and my Myfi to watch it in the parking lot! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad324 Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 One thing to consider guys is a church parking lot on Sunday morning may be awfully busy so might need a contingency plan for that too. I've not been to this meet spot so not sure if it's even necessary but thought I'd throw it out there for you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
