Default it hasn't always rained...

For a few years there (ok maybe four or five ago) - Father's Day weekend was almost too hot and sunny! Lots of sunburns - and considering how much skin was exposed...

As to the change of weeks last year - I was told that it was strictly because of the way the calendar fell. Bike week always begins on the second Saturday in June and usually ends on the third Sunday. Father's Day is always the third Sunday in June. Last year June 1 was a Sunday so the second Saturday was the 14th, Father's Day was the 15th, and bike week ended on the 22nd (fourth Sunday). At least that was how it was explained to me.

maybe next year the weather and the economy will be better.
