1 day to Coolest

Pack and prep day today. Plan is to load up my gear and stake out a pit in the solo area at around noon. Might take the Yellow bike and ride half the course too.

Top of the charge on my Dinotte light system and do a once over on the bikes.

Yesterday was interesting. Rylan was being four and decided to be a stinker and dug up several of Amanda's plants. As you'd expect Amanda nor I were happy, especially when he blamed it on our poor dog. Kids!!!! ;o) He didn't like being grounded to his room yesterday though, hopefully, he'll learn....yeah right! I'm sure I or Amanda did something similar at the same age.

Pizza tonight, lots of fluids, and lots of rest. Frank is helping out with course set up today and will be crashing here at our place tonight. We'll carpool over tomorrow probably at around 9:30. And then it's go time at noon.

You can never tell really how these things go, but I feel good, no blah feeling in the mental category either. So maybe the planets will line up and a little luck will follow. 24hrs is a long time and anything can happen, hopefully I'll reach my goal of a top five overall and similar placing in the SS cat.

Stay tuned for a post race follow up.
