Last year the salt just needed to dry out for BMST to happen. That's not the current problem.

Delvene sent an e-mail I got at work this afternoon.  She says the meet continues is not cancelled.  She also says the weeks of summer weather between speedweek and the BMST can help things.

Wonder if they would ever do an abbreviated short course meet?  There are lots of small bore or older bike folks that would do just fine on 3 or 4 miles.

Maybe not enough of us for it to pencil out...

Actually guys, I was wondering about the lack of salt and the presence of silt, not the water.

Yeah we were there, was just thinking if only a short course was available rather than cancel.  Also would like to see the liners get to run again.

I know what you were asking, but no one knows. Last year was a close call. We got it in.


Every pass is precious
Every pass is great
If a pass is wasted...

Thanks Jim. See you out there.:D

According to the BMST website, they will be sending an advance team out next weekend to check to see if they can groom a course. I hope they can!

Thanks Don, just trying to decide if I am going to make an 1800 mile drive to Maine or a 1630 mile drive to Utah.
