How dumb I was to think Sauvie would put out yesterday. Sad

Dude - it did put out! You just needed to wait for everyone to pack up! Could have double teamed her after everyone left.

I'm thinking why the hell can't people click on the sensor and forecast links above.

It looks good though.

I'm heading out now, you should grab your stuff and meet me out there. ITS ON!!!

Okay, so here's my new Sauvie rule of thumb. Take whatever speed Airnet is predicting, subtract 10, and wala....the actual air speed on the river! Laughing

And yes, you can go into the negatives. Also, in doing this type of math, "0" has a slight chance of actually getting a 16m Thing in the air. Wink

I'm going to sit out today, too tired from weekend and clouds and 66 degree temp isn't that attractive. Maybe tomorrow.

Hope it works out for you all.

I have been skunked enough that I gave my parking pass away on Saturday. I am sure it will get more use now. Hopefully my curse is now dead and it blows like hell so you all get great wind from now on. From now on I am heading east – she is all yours.

Hmmm. I just checked my favorite reports and it doesn't look good for Sauvies at all right now....

Heard on the radio that the new SI bridge is open and ready to ride on. As for SI and sailing today; trees in SW PDX are currently moving, so it could happen, but I won't be there. Go get some for those that can't.

Friday and Sat are sounding like classic strong wind (relative term) and super hot temps. I'd love to get some of that, but I plan on smackin on some tasty salty water taffy and glassy swell. Shocked

yep its open. nice bridge. way better than the old one. wonder if/when they are tearing it down?

its looking like a classic si week set-up, today even. i got fresh ink on my arm, so im on the bench for at least a week...right? columbia water + fresh tat = infection perfection!

You would end up ruining your tattoo for sure. The top layer of skin would get really soft and probably get rubbed off. After it was done healing it would be blury.

Doesn't look like it's happening yet. Could get somewhat ridable later towards evening though.

It's supposed to go... Airnet forecast looks good. I was thinking about it today, just for a change, but there's too much shit to do around the house... Maybe tomorrow.
