Another Trip
I’m watching the weather almost religiously right now. We’re planning another Gap trip for April 4th, and hubby’s already asked for the day off. The bad news? Right now weather.com is forecasting 60% chance of rain. I’m hoping the trip is far enough away that the weather will change by then.
I’ve learned from experience not to even consider driving to The Gap if they’re calling for any rain. The last time we went up for a full weekend they were calling for 30% rain on Saturday and 20% Sunday. We figured it was a low enough % that we’d have a nice weekend.
What we had was anything but. We spent all day Saturday kicked back at The Kickstand Lodge because it absolutely poured all day. We did take the Blazer up and down the dragon a couple times, but riding was out of the question. Sunday we waited until around lunch time for the roads to dry up, but at least we got to ride for a few hours before having to head home.
I won’t do that again. Saturday was a full day wasted. It was nice and pretty back home, and we could have been riding on 28 instead.
