Tonik Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 60 percent Saturday, now 45 percent Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howabusa Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I vote for Sunday. Saturday the high temperature is low 60s and 50% chance of rain. Sunday is going to be warmer and drier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Could luck into dryer weather Sunday, supposed to be sunny here in Columbus, rain may shift further south/east before then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinNck1 Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Why not ride both days? If it rains Saturday, it can be a recon ride and come back Sunday and ride it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobhawkins Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I'm out for Sunday. I'll probably go out tomorrow regardless, if it's skechy, I'll go slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAC Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 No. It's when I buy the ride shirt. When I show up and buy one on the spot, like in years past, then I catch the rain gods by surprise. Ordering the shirt, like I did this year, gives them sufficient warning to stir up some shitty weather. So I can't buy 'em anymore. Such a shame. If someone were to - by accident - get two, I'd buy one off 'em. But hey what are the chances of that? Prolly never happen. Did I mention I'm an XL?

Casper Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Weather underground is showing 20% chance of rain most of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUBIE Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I'm super stoked!!! I say let's go for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion-Ninja Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) Looking at the Radar, I imagine most of this will have already PASSED by the Epic Ride area 6am in the morning. Only small "Popup" or "Popcorn" showers might develop during the ride, which those I have no problem dealing with. I just dont leave the house knowing its POURING RAIN with a thunderstorm system the size of TEXAS looming overhead all day! I plan on waking up at 4AM. Leaving my house bout 4:45am! I will check the Radar and this forum 4:30am tomorrow morning and make my Final call then! I would vote that this Ride happens tomorrow & do another for those that Only want to ride Sunday.

Have seen the weather change completely opposite, but looking at the radar rain is eminent. Light rain is not so much a worry for me, it's the 50-62 degree temps. Cold and wet is miserable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connie14 Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 The real question is, how many people are hitting refresh or checking in periodically to see if the ride is delayed? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whaler Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 If someone knows the current weather situation and does not check every hour or so, they deserve to be wet and cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerekClouser Posted May 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 I've talked with several people about the decision. I think it's in the best interest as a whole to postpone the ride until Sunday. To anyone who is unable to make it Sunday and want to bear the weather tomorrow, I encourage you guys to post up and maybe a group of you can still meet up and ride. Hopefully to the rest, I look forward to seeing you guys on Sunday. It has a chance of rain Sunday afternoon, but Saturday night and Sunday morning are clear and the roads will be dry and we can have a great ride!! Look forward to seeing you gentleman (and ladies) on Sunday!! Sorry to any who maybe inconvenienced by this. Please post up if you still plan on attending on Sunday as I am still arranging a grille and food, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
