Welcome Riders and Sponsors. Thanks so much to those who have registered in advance!! The Kick Off party is this Saturday Feb. 28th at 6:00pm at Water Sports West. Food, drinks, and entertainment will be provided. We have lots of gear to raffle off , so bring some cash to buy your tickets. Gary Henderson walked away last year as the Big Winner. Right now it looks like possibility for a Gulf race on Sunday March 1st. If you have not registered please do not wait until the last minute. We will be monitoring the wind forecast for Sunday and we will send out a 72 and a 48 hour notice. We will also at the time provide race details on start and finish location. This event is a charity race and all of the proceeds will be donated to All Children's Hospital. For those of you that have paid in advance for your jerseys you will need to let me know your size. We have a limited supply of jersey's this year. For the out of town riders, Jason Orkins has worked out a deal with the Trade Winds Resort. They have offered us a discounted rate. I will post the contact information and rates later today on the tbkm.org. If any one has any questions or needs, feel free to email or call me.

72 Hour Notice
Welcome Riders and Sponsors.
http://www.tbkm.org/email.htm This is your 72 hour notice!! As of right now the wind is forecasted to be 20 - 25 mph with stronger gust out of the North West on Sunday March 1st. Please be there by 9:30am to make sure you are signed in. There might be a chance of a rain line coming through, so we will see what the weather conditions are before we make the call to race. We will be parking at the southern most tip of the Sand Key State Park and kites need to be setup on the beach off the state park beach. Bring plenty of quarters for parking. Here is a link to the course map.http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UT...15234&t=h&z=11 The Finish line and after party is at the Trade Winds Resort, look for the big blue slide is your land mark. They have been gracious enough to give us free limited parking, (no trailers). It also looks like because of Spring Break a lot of hotels are booked. If you are in need of a place to stay for the night call me or get in touch of some local riders to see if you can crash with them. Don't forget about the Kick off Party this Saturday 6:00pm at Water Sports West! It's going to be off the hook. If any one has any questions or needs, feel free to email or call me. Thanks Chris Moore and the TBKM.org volunteers 727.507.1013

48 hour update!!
Welcome Riders and Sponsors.
http://www.tbkm.org/email.html This is your 48 hour notice!! We are still go for the race. I have been watching and reading every weather model out there since yesterday. It looks like everything is coming together for Sunday. I predict a early squall line around 3 or 4 am and it looks to be blustery after that. Please be at the Sand Key State Park by 9:30am to make sure you are signed in. We will hold tight until the radar looks clear before we make the call to race. We will be parking at the southern most tip of the Sand Key State Park and kites need to be setup on the beach off the state park beach. Bring plenty of quarters for parking.
