Decided I should go ahead and post these photos from the Providence start straight to Facebook. Flickr link is goofy.

These were taken by river rat extraordinaire Jonathan Lauten.

We have a new batch of photos from the Providence Race Start by Jonathan Lauten who posted up on Perche Creek. They are towards the end of the Race to the Dome Flickr Album. There's some great ones!

Exciting Perk! Our friend Levi Riddle's family has just purchased a campground on the beautiful Sac River near Stockton that they have renamed "River Sounds". He's donated 2 gift certificates for a 2-night stay in their riverside cabins. Those will be going to the top finisher at each race course.

Paddle Harder!

We have a racer in the Race to the Dome this weekend coming from Omaha, doing the Providence Race and looking for help shuttling. Anyone have extra space for a pre-race or post-race shuttle?

If so, PM me and I'll connect you. Thanks!

HEADS UP Folks! This may impact travel for folks coming to the race area from the west. Eastbound I-70 will reduce to one lane between Rangeline Exit and Hwy 63 on Friday and Saturday. Traffic may back up significantly. Sorry for the hassle! Hopefully it won't be bad early in the morning.

One way to avoid the area is to exit at Stadium Blvd from I-70 and follow that around to Hwy 63, but it's entirely possible I-70 could back up past Stadium.

Heads Up Columbia – A single lane of eastbound I-70 will be closed from 7 p.m. Oct. 3 to 6 a.m. on Oct. 6 for crews to construct new lanes.

Motorists should expect significant delays and are advised to plan an alternate route.

We all know not to believe extended forecasts, but right now looking like a high in mid-70's with barely a breeze. Like the sound of that! Fingers crossed.
