Isn't it really hot/humid here in August?
Sorry to deliver this bad (some may say good) news but we have decided to postpone Spring Thing. Weather is not conducive to motorcycles or campers. The cold front has moved in the highs are in the 40's with rain every day. Sat seems to be a little better, 40% chance of rain and high of 56. In reading recent posts and speaking with folks, the attendance is starting to dwindle down. The event cost $450 and is split among those that attend. Rather than risk losing the funds we have decided to postpone event. The new dates are Aug 13 - 16th, hope you all understand.Rain/Thunder/Wind Thursday - Low: 40° High: 46° Friday - Low: 37° High: 44° Satrday - Low: 38° High: 56°

As I can see though, this has apparently become a "money thing" for the X riders. Everyone planning on attending has known about the weather since this past weekend and now, less than 24 hours before heading out, you're going to post-pone it. Glad to see everyone got a chance to express their opinion on the matter! BTW, I had originally scheduled days off from work for this (doesn't matter now) and some others may have to.One other question, who's going to reimburse me for the $150 worth of groceries we bought for this and the $50 in gas for going to llano and picking up the fifth wheel? Think maybe someone can shoot me a check from the X rider fund, Oh wait a minute, guess that falls in the "risk of losing funds" comment posted above. One more thing and this is the last, It was also nice that we all got a chance to voice our ideas of the new dates as well.
This matches the Bluebonnet Blunder!
