Probability of being ready for the SaddleSore1000 on June 17^th 95% up from 90% yesterday. 

 

The route has changed slightly.  We’ve decided to drive North through the Narrows and through the city of Dauphin.  The Sites are supposed to be much nicer, and therefore less boring.    I’m getting extremely excited, I can barely contain myself.  I want to RIDE…  I have a hunger for the open roadway.
