Sunday to Monday: 7”

Wednesday to Thursday: 8”

So yes, the entire city and almost every entity in it, was shit down for a solid week.

We ended up getting about 2 inches of sleet the previous Wednesday. This is on Saturday, and while it looks kinda cool, it was nothing but a big headache.

Boom! Gravel racing is back, well semi-sort of at least. This year, the OGG went off as an individual time trial, to keep COVID compliant, and to keep everyone as safe as possible. Normally this race is plagued by absolutely miserable conditions: rain, sleet, snow, ice, wind, damp and dank. This year the temp wasn’t horrible (38), and was warmed by a bright shining sun. I’m starting out on the right foot, with a podium in the first race of my season. My time was good enough for 3rd place, and it actually paid $50! Win.

Cold.

Rain.

Sonuva, a flat.
