The weather forecast for Saturday is looking bad in the Bishop CA area, where the Everest Challenge will be held. It shows temperatures in the low 60’s and a 60% chance of rain. Since the bike race climbs to over 10,000 feet, that would mean SNOW. With the Furnace Creek 508 coming up, I can’t afford to get injured by trying to bike in the snow, even if I was willing to try. So it looks like the Everest Challenge may be a no go. I went ahead and canceled the hotel reservation now. If the forecast changes back to good weather, then we may make a last minute decision to still do the event if we can get a room. Kind of a bummer.
