2023 update - The Pantani Double - now offering two Pantanis for the price of none

Good and Evil.  Love and Hate.  Sunshine and Snow.  If you spend enough time contemplating your life, the weather, and your plans, you'll miss your life.  And you also might miss Pantani.  

Saturday looks like a gem of a day.  And the gravel up on the mountain is sweet bliss right now, recently brushed down the edges for good sight lines, chunder-free, and smooth as a baby's bottom.  Sunday, though, things will change.  Things are always changing, standard mountain weather deviations.  But even those things could change, just like you.  

It's the same tug of war every Spring, back and forth, up and down.  Event planning becomes, shall we say, schizophrenic.  But you can't cancel Pantani for a little rain, can you?  No, indeed.  You can only add.  

So then, owing to the weather, we'll have not one, but TWO Pantani options this weekend, one Saturday and one Sunday, both departing at 10 AM from the paranormal field.  

I hesitate to call them identical.  At least on paper, they'll be the same.  But the effect that each will have on your soul will be remarkably different, especially if you decide to have yourself a double scoop of Pantani and do both.  

Saturday will be a soothing experience, for a while anyway.  Performance Enhancing Weather.  You might blow up into a boozy mess near the Mailboxes, but at least you won't die from exposure.  

Sunday, I'm not sure.  I would estimate you should pack some snacks, dress warm, and what will be will be.  If nothing else, you'll be in good company.  

I leave it up to you.

Until then, taper down, and keep looking up, up, up.
