As always it was a busy weekend of riding and racing. Nate went down by Kaleb as they were registered for a 150km race on Saturday. Well with the rain I called Nate and advised him to not race but Kaleb wanted to do it so off they went and raced. It rained, sleeted and snowed with 60 mile an hour winds on gravel and asphalt roads. They got smart after 2 laps of mud and pulled the plug. They cleaned up and got home so we could wash the kits and get ready for some racing today. We loaded the cars and headed to Madison for some crit racing. Nate toed the line fotr the Jr race and took a 3rd place today and then later raced the cat 3 race and took a 10th place. Good day of racing then Nate and Maddie loaded the Volvo and headed to Stevens Point to spend the night with Wade before finishing the drive to Rhinelander for the week. It is going to seem a little different as Cece and I will only have Jessica for the week before we send her to Rhinelander on Friday via airplane. But Nate and Maddie come home Friday so it is just a switch for us. But nice none the less. Well I need to get the paper and relax after 8 hours in the wind and cold. Later..

Good thing they pulled the plug, it was a sufferfest on the last lap.
I was glad that they did too. Congrats on your finish in those conditions. Normal conditions I think they would have finished, but the way it was made it to brutal. Congrats again.
