Why changed a good thing

[JoFotoz]

There were a few Stoop mummmmmbbblings...

Why changed a good thing

...about all the "Razors'..and the heat.

The poll is up for a month...

..then we'll get a good idea of what dates suit the majority.

Agreed.. And yeah side by sides are LAMEEEE.... So I will go with the majority.

I probably won't be there so I won't vote, but keep in mind that the earlier dates will make it hard for our younger college members to make it - the second week of May is usually when colleges hold finals and/or graduation.

But I do agree that it was hot, especially on Tuesday and Thursday. As our babies age we probably should stay out of the heat.

Traditionally it has always been the 2nd week if May. 1 week earlier is not going to miraculously change the weather. Some years its hot, some it snows! If you move it a few weeks earlier you got EJS going on....50+ rigs on a trail is not fun.

[Scott Harness]

Now Tom...you haven't been since you made us change the date

[PK]

Either date will work for me.
I just need to know which it is.

Well sort of Billy...

...it was moved back a week recently , after issues about it running over Mothers day.

And yes...a week for the weather is not really worth taking into consideration...

.....but EJS ceratinly IS...hence easter is OUT!

This year we seemed to have every single Razor in the country (except Sue's!!) running around.

Police convoys taking them to trails etc...

....100 of then (littttterrrally!) split 50/50 on Hells revenge and Porcupine Rim!!

Never mind the Cluster Phuq they got into failing horribly to climb out of Kane Creek!

PITA...big time!

This year was warm, but last year was cold. There is no way to predict the weather based on one week or the other; I have seen everything from highs in the 60s to the 90s over the years.

Besides, most of you had air-conditioned rooms and vehicles anyway...

[Triathlete]

Jo, date didn't change. Mothers day just missed the usual weekend.

[JoFotoz]

Actually Billy...

Jo, date didn't change. Mothers day just missed the usual weekend.

...look back and I think you'll find that it was moved back a week.

A 'movement' to do so was spearheaded by ( IIRC) TomDieTrying.

But anywhooo...just pick a date from the poll...
...and we'll all figure it out

Agreed about the weather, I prefer when there are less crowds on trails.......plan on bringing mine again next year and don't like medicating on trails!
