Anybody else looking forward to the Flood Run? We've got about 10 bikes so far in our group.

I wouldn't miss it unless there is ice involved. Cold = ok, rain = ok, ice = sucky!

I'll be riding with the GF and a couple of buddies. It's always a great time, and we start off in Prescott, WI, heading south to Wabasha and back up the MN side. Ride safely!

Yeah, we take the same route. We've got about 10 bikes at this point. It should be a good time.

As we get closer, the weather's looking to be pretty good... low in the upper 40's, high's in the low 60's (w/ low rain chance). Sounds good to me!

I'm hoping to start off at Beach Club in Lakeland. My GF will be riding with me, and we'll be riding with a buddy and his GF. Ride safely all!

I usually go as far south as Nelson, WI and then cross over to Wabasha and take the MN side back home.

BTW, the link to the Flood Run website is: www.floodrun.org
