I'm seeing isolated thunderstorms, so who knows. Isolated is better than scattered thunderstorms which is better than straight up rain. Temp is right around 75 for Saturday.

Rain and 75 equals out to some chipper temps!
Lets hope the rain doesn't show up!
That way it doesn't mess up our day or our rides!

Weather currently showing a 30% chance of rain.

Will be there rain or shine.... I have to put some elbow grease on the Deuce. Had to wait to wax her because of the new paint. Will start on her after work tonight.

She basically has no wax on her at all now

We should be there around 10:15am.

I'd really like to get wax on mine before the Meet, and my best shot is Friday after work. I ordered new bottles Mother's California Gold three step system ($43 total ), and have them now, but I really want to run a clay bar over the car first. That means I've got probably 4 hours (at least) of work ahead of me just between clay baring and waxing all three steps and I don't know if I'll have time for it Friday. Might save all that for another weekend where I can wash the car first thing in the morning and spend the rest of the day waxing.

I'll be there between 9 and 10. I'm hoping to get the rear pavilion still, and give up the front one. Less traffic.
LadyT won't be coming this time. She's got a party to go to in Mason or somewhere that way.
WAX! What's that? No wax right now for me. I'm just happy to be driving it right now. It'll be clean. That's about it for me.
