Bummer. Nate's travel plans have changed due to the incoming clipper system and he can't make the 1:00 start. This coupled with the ominous forecast for snow, high winds and a high of 30F on Saturday - not exactly prime road riding conditions. Maybe we can shoot for late March/early April for the race. Nate is still coming to Latrobe tomorrow, and there is a potential for riding on Saturday night or early Sunday morning - most likely mtb at Boyce or Frick. Please let me know what you think. Sorry about all the inconvenience. -Todd hey guys, this ride is canceled. i got this email:

It's really just about 7 mountain bikers (+3 others I sent the email to)getting back in the saddle a bit. my bad for not clearing that up before sending it along, -aaron Hey all, just to clear up any potential confusion, this isn’t a real “race”, and there is a large amount of sarcasm amongst the first email.
