Welcome to the Tue, 05/28/2013 – 06:00 edition of Off Topic! You are looking at the next step in the evolution of VCN, the Off-Topic page. Have you ever been frustrated because you had a burning desire to call someone a sandbagger and could only hope to be timely by posting your comment to a photo gallery page or on a page describing a charity ride?
Well, your prayers have been answered! You can post your comment from the home page and it magically comes to rest here with the other orphans from the land of Misfit Comments. The page gets refreshed every day, but not to worry! Each day’s page will be archived and treasured, so you can look back on past pages with pride, shame or disgust-depending on how the day’s conversation went. So post away! We’ve got an internet to fill up.
FBF is CANCELED!! Tonight’s Regional Orthopedics Tuesday Series race at Floyd Bennett Field is CANCELED. The rain is coming down harder now and is forecasted to remain steady through the evening. The course will most likely be flooded and not safe (or fun) to race on. Please spread the word.

HA!
FBF TONIGHT – We are monitoring today’s weather forecast for tonight’s Regional Orthopedics Tuesday Series race. We race rain or shine but significant rain can easily flood the course causing large lake-like puddles which are are not safe (or fun) to race through. If the race is cancelled we will make a decision before 5PM. Keep an eye on this page for updates.
Also, if the race is on we will be using our normal course (not the short course we used for the last 2 races) and the races will start at 6:30 for the Cat 5’s and 7PM for the Cat 123’s and 3-4’s.

Charlie, was there any road work done to the long course over the last 2 weeks while we were using the short course?
Yes, they added puddles.
