Amashova 2013

[SurferChild]

Updated weather forecast showing a slight improvement in ambient temp for the day (perceived temp of 19 deg).

And see how the wind forecast is changing. From an East (head wind) to SSW (R to L cross wind).

 

If it goes SW then it will feel like a slight tailwind, especially from the bottom of fields hill to the finish.

That 4.5hours of rain is a bit worrying...

Harryn, dont you worry about the weather, your focus needs to be on the road looking for this cow so you can push her up the hills...

[Andyr249]

Not nice! Get well soon.

Nice. I'll be sure to add the Zipp 404's in so that the people in VA know whose wheel to get on!
