Hopefully the racers will take into consideration the beginning poor trail conditions until they get further north where there are better trails. Otherwise I would expect to hear plenty of incidents or off the trail collisions.
Would have been nice to have had just a portion of the snow the east had recently, so many thinks get snaffooed when we get NO SNOW.
Riders are leaving two at a time, each checking each others gear, most are just wearing lightweight leather and denim jackets. Still lots of talk about the sleds needing ice or snow to cool the engine and track runners.
