unfortunately I had to remove my fenders to fit the cross tires. Let the mud fly

I am packed and ready to go. Going to leave midday. Even bought a little Irish Whiskey. W.Va ain't as strict as Pa folks.
Yep, I agree, 30% or less, I disregard. As of noon, the forecasts for Saturday (my hanging-out day) were 60% for day-long rain -- not deadly, but not any fun, either. Just checked again. Still calling for thunderstorms Friday night, but the wild card is when they'll hit, and Weather Channel and Accuweather disagree. If I can be at camp and all set up before the deluge arrives, I'll probably go for it. Both sites now say just some a.m. showers for Saturday (Accuweather has the more optimistic forecast), then clearing up.

I'll check once more in the morning, and make a *really* last-minute decision!

NR, got your last PM -- no worries. Even without the potential weather issues, that was quite a few last-minute logistics we were trying to sort out! Next time . . .
