I'm thrilled to have been a part of this debauchery, what a race! THANKS Joe and Bill, everyone who contributed. This was a special crowd (short-bus "special" in a few cases), and an amazing event that I'll TRY to do justice telling my grandchildren about when I'm transitioning from senile to incont...

Alright then, here we go! I'd encourage all you racers to sign up ASAP, it really helps the race committee to know the head count early. It takes a lot to put on a big race, and we want the good people to keep organizing and supporting this event. Just for tickles, here's the BONUS glow cones race e...

Hey Oliver, I'm planning on skating this Sunday, and expecting we'll have sort of "the usual crowd" here in Antrim. It would be great if you can make it out here.

THANKS to our hosts, Dan and Carol, the whole scene was welcoming to the kids, all the new racers, and us cranky old guys too. The Snake Run was a hit! Not too big, not too small, just right.

Re: Race, Race, Race!
Change of Plan.
It looks like Saturday will be crappy, and Sunday will be decent, so I'm forced to call it for the better day.
We'll race on SUNDAY, 11 AM 'til... whatever races we can squeeze in.
