[RC] Biltmore Ride on the 25th - sangel15

Hello all....per Susan Kain the Biltmore Mount'n Hopes ride scheduled for 
September 25 on the Biltmore Estate has been cancelled due to the severe 
flooding from Hurricane Frances. The damage to the estate, the barns, the lower 
pastures as well as the trails are significant. The lower pastures where we 
usually camp were under about 10 ft of water initially and took over a week to 
go down. Some of the area is still under water and Hurricane Ivan will do even 
more damage due to the saturation and the high water level of the French Broad 
River. Susan is trying to get sanctioning for November 20 but that is still 
under consideration. To all in the path of Ivan prayers are with you. Those of 
you near Asheville, consider joining us locals in the clean up of the trails 
after the weather has settled down. More on this project later....Sharon 
Hinshaw and Renegade
