Title: Dry lake condition
Post by: spike on August 04, 2014, 12:56:15 PM

I know everyone is focused on the salt right now however it hasn't been a good couple of days out in the desert around El Mirage-due to the summer monsoons.

Anyone know if it's a dry lake or a wet lake now? Thanks E Ross

My neighbor trains off-road motorcycle riding there from time to time.  He was there Saturday and said there was a couple of inches of water on the lake.

(No meet scheduled for August.)

... there was a couple of inches of water on the lake...

I was just thinking how silly that sounds if taken out of context... :-D

I guess we'll just wait and see what happens to it between now and September.

Thanx for the notice.

Lazy - that's why I'll ask instead of looking it up.  What is the date of the September race?  Does it coincide with WoS or the Shootout?  Thankee.

WoS is the 6-9th. El Mirage is the 14th.
