I really need to ride my bike as I am starting to scream at people at work. I need to get away from it all...  I was thinking of hitting SWK on Friday afternoon though it looks like it'll rain Thursday through Friday morning. What's the probability of being able to ride on Friday afternoon? Slim chance, no chance, okay?

Maybe... we might get some more rain. I can check the trail conditions friday morning and join you for a ride. I get done with class at 9:50am so I can check it around 10:20-10:30am ish.

I need to ride my bike more, I need more time to ride my bike more, I need to finish college so I'll be able to ride my bike and have more time to ride my bike more.

The National Weather Service and The Weather Channel both are contraindicating each other. It could go either way. SWK usually drains out quickly, so you've got that going for you. Here's a looping weather link that will tell you what the real deal is. http://radar.weather.gov/ridge/Conus/full_loop.phpIf it's ride-able, I'll be out there.

Was out there today. A little slick, but there are some trails that are good to ride. Wildcat, Vertical Velocity, Anaconda, Colossus. Other stuff was a little slick. Looks like rain tonight/tomorrow, so it might not be cool to ride.
Saturday on out looks like nice weather. Hopefully!

Seeing how the rain is coming down tonight there is no chance for anything to dry up by tomorrow afternoon. I'd say the whole weekend looks blown out at the moment. May be stuck to biking Waterfall Glen instead...

Let me know when you're going to ride. I might be able to join you. I'll be riding at Springbrook in the morning fwiw.

I'll give you a call during the morning after I see how the day is shaping up.
