The ride that wasn't

[Mr. Bloom]

I'm sorry!

Ah, but it's still spring and the good weather is ahead of us

Oy-freakin'-vey!

Poor DrB - I hope someday you can look back at this weekend and laugh ... at the moment though, notsomuch! Ack.

[Tri Girl]

Man- that is super disappointing!!!

I'm sure your donors will understand and will know that it wasn't your fault (well, the weather anyway).
Don't beat yourself up- things happen. I drove to a triathlon one time with my bike locked on my rack. Got out and realized the key was at home. Doh!

...but so disappointing! Those things happen, though and there is just plain nothing to do but laugh and say, we did the best we could and it did not work out! There is always next time!

[Tuckervill]

That's so disappointing! But, we have a saying in the non-profit event industry that we say when it rains us out..."the money is already in the bank!" Cynical, I know, but hey, what else can you do?

yeah, we are already chuckling about it...bikes are off the rack now. Amazing what a locksmith can do with 30 seconds and $$ but did end up getting in a 36 mile ride around Houston this afternoon, so all was not lost. Just hard when you build up to a big weekend like this, and then it just gets sucked away...first the weather, then a stupid moment of forgetfulness in the haze of 4 am!

Oh well... ce la vie!

You can do most of the MS150 route without having road closures. Only thing would be getting into Austin and they won't have Congress avenue closed. But it is doable. Adventure Cycling goes through Austin to east on the Southern Tier.

I couldn't believe it was cancelled, so many people target it. We needed the rain but not all at once! We got 2.67 inches up here and that was just the start!
