65 Mile Tune Up Outlook

Whaa---Hoo!!

Here's advice I just love to give. SUNSCREEN!

That's right. Bring sunscreen for Sunday's 65 mile Tune Up ride. The current outlook is for a sunny and warm day. Most of us haven't had a lot of sun exposure yet this year. So seriously folks. Apply sunscreen early, liberally, and plan to renew as the day goes on.

Carry at least two water bottles. We'll stop at least twice, with a third stop if needed, so you will be able to re-supply, but you will need to stay hydrated. It's suddenly going to be unexpectedly warm.

The current outlook is for a high in the 80s, mostly sunny, and a very low rain chance.

On that last note, please do carry a rain jacket. The weather can turn on a dime, and a "pop-up" thundershower is no problem if you have some cover. On the other hand, getting thoroughly soaked, and near hypothermia is a recipe for a miserable day. This is one of those "ounce of prevention" situations.

Let's all show up on time. We ride at 11:00 AM, promptly. Bring your best smile, and your cheeriest "can do" attitude. It's going to be a great day for a ride!
