    why can't we have the weather from this past weekend instead of what's in the forecast? I'm camping - brrr...

    I've ridden in the cold on my Michelin PPs, but have never ridden slicks, nor the new TZ. I have tire warmers, but what is the coldest I can expect those slicks to work?

    On the plus side, it probably won't be too crowded :lol:

    Thanks,

    Richard

    Yeah, I'm watching it every hour. I don't think we'll really know until Thursday!

    I have to sign up too! Cant wait to trail brake that new pavement with the new Pirelli blue stripe mediums.

    Anyone up for Joliet MX Tuesday night practice?

    And I need a place to stash my 6x12 trailer in or around Chicago. Anyone got any ideas?

    Was trying to plan more with my friend and I brought up a thought...

    Say Saturday it does rain as they are predicting and we ride and all our gear gets wet...

    Where or how should we dry it in time for Sunday? :(

    The weather forecast is changing every hour! Saturday is up to 52 now...

    Find me, or anyone else with an EZUP, and hang your stuff in there out of the rain. I share the concern since it is supposed to be cold and wet - things might not dry too well on their own.

    I always welcome other riders out of the weather underneath my canopy. No one wants to see someone else out in the bad weather. Well, unless it was that dude who ran me off the track last summer at Putnam - I would let him hang out in the rain :twisted:

    Weather forecasting must be tricky business - it was like this last year. constantly changing right up until the day of the event! Glad I came last year as the weather cleared up and we had a great time.

    I believe $50 for the weekend, but that could be different this year.
