Good call. Maybe I’m trying to say I am a wuss,it might rain Thursday.
It hasn't rained here in 2 weeks, it is very welcome to quell the dust. Most rains do not last more than a few hours anyway and getting away from them is just a mountain crossing away more often than not.

Your asking @JACKAL ?

One of the first times I rode with him it was cold.
The trails where supper smooth and we had no issues with ruts or getting wet.
In the late afternoon the ice started to thaw a little and I realized we where riding on top of the ruts and puddles - they had a layer of ice that would support 3 or 4 buggies crossing no problem.

Last time (earlier this year) I didn't bring a buggy, just jumped in the passenger seat.
It started to rain.
After a bit, I realize he is really good at stopping with the drivers side down hill just a little.
Rain is dripping off the roof and runs clear of his shoulder leaning on the door.
On the passenger side the rain is hitting the side of my head and running in the neck opening of my frog-togs.
By the way, frog-togs are water proof both ways, they hold water in just as well as they hold water out.

I told my wife the weather will be fine.
Already loaded her Carharts and mud boots.
Stuffed a hand full of hand warmer packets in the rack bag.
Anything beyond that, I'm just going to tell her @JACKAL lied and said it was going to be beautiful.
(the wife's kin are from Tennessee so a transplant Yankee telling stories is completely plausible)

Like your signature says, "it is what it is".
What can we do about it, not ride?
I don't think so.

The northern guys will be comfortable maybe a little chilly at night. You southern guys will be comfy in the day and freezing at night. What’s the moral of the story... southern guys bring jackets, your welcome.👍

The weather has been awesome the last few days. Even had to grab a hoodie before I headed out this morning. Wish it was like this year round.
