Badger Run Gravel Grinder

Recap:  The weather gods did not bless us today.  None the less, we had some brave gravel grinding soles come out to ride with us today.  Yes is was windy, and we got rained on and some of us were cold and we even got a little muddy but we had a fun time  Thanks again Tim Greene for hosting.

Update 11/17/17:  Tim will have course maps for anyone who needs them.  Courses conditions are currently great.  Temps in the low 40's with some wind so it will feel a lot cooler. Perfect gravel grinding weather :-)  May encounter a small shower in the morning but remember we run rain or shine. See everyone in the morning.
