Ever try to get in to see your chiropractor, only to be told you’re waiting a few days? Every been hurt on a Saturday? Hood River Chiropractic, located downtown above Flow Yoga, can help you out. Docs Michelle and Alex (who rips Post Canyon all the time) can get you in, even on a Saturday. These two understand you don’t want to slow down because you’re hurt. They’ll work with you to formulate a recovery plan that allows you to keep doing the things you love (like ride Post). They take insurance, they offer cash discounts, and they’ll make sure you get the treatment you need. Finally, if you need some supplements (no, not EPO or HGH), they’ll do customized nutritional analysis to make sure you’re only getting the supps you really need. To book an appointment, give them a call: 541-406-0849. Two of the lucky people on the email version of this forecast will win free chiropractic appointments this week.

We’re going to have a bit of east wind this morning, with 17-20 at Rooster Rock and Stevenson this morning, but it’s not going to last very long today. It’s also the last CGWA swap meet of the season, so do your shopping fast and get on the water early!

After today, the wind is really going to back off. We’ll see light wind tomorrow morning, building to 10-15 out of the west in the afternoon. If we get really lucky, we’ll see 16-19 late in the afternoon. Then on Tuesday, the wind shuts down to nothing, and we’ll probably see glassy conditions through the end of the week, as high pressure and hot temperatures keep the wind from blowing.

It’s going to be a great week for road biking, with cool overnight temperatures making for great riding early in the day, and the lack of wind making for good riding all day long. To celebrate, Henni’s Bar and Grill in White Salmon will be hiding a gift certificate on one of the Gorge’s classic rides this week, so stay tuned for the details on that.

If you’re looking for something to do this evening, Hennis’ is having a party. Swing by from 5-9, and take a look at what kind of dinner you’ll win if you find that gift certificate.

Finally, today is the Sandy Ridge Super D race, so cross your fingers for our local riders. I think we’ve got racers in every class, so good luck to everyone, and bring home some medals for the Gorge!

Stay cool out there, and have an awesome day!

Labor Day weekend is here, and it’s the unofficial end of summer, and that means it’s time for east winds. We’ll see 24-28 today at Rooster, with a little less at Stevenson and Home Valley. The wind should hold pretty much all day in the western Gorge, and pick up to 10-13 out of the east in the eastern Gorge in the afternoon. I really thought we’d wake to a glassy morning in Hood River, but there are just enough ripples on the water to dimple the glass.

Tomorrow’s going to be a good day to spend in the water, as temperatures are predicted to reach 95 degrees. Head to Stevenson or Rooster rock for 20-23 in the morning. Get it early tomorrow, because the wind is going to start fading pretty early, probably leaving us with glassy conditions in the afternoon.

If you’re sticking around on Monday, start calling your friends with boats now, because Labor Day is going to be a great day for wakeboarding or fishing. One of the models is showing a bit of a marine push early on Monday, so we may see 5-10, just enough breeze for heat relief, in the western half of the Gorge.

The hot weather looks to continue all the way through next week. If you’re not yet a whitewater kayaker, now might be the time to learn.

Tomorrow might be your last chance to pick up some used gear for cheap. It’s the final CGWA swap meet of the season, at the expo center in Hood River, starting around 8am.

Finally, I want to remind all of you that it is bike commute challenge month. Even if you can’t ride to work, see if you can burn a little less gas this month by riding your bike for some errands, and get the rest of your family out on bikes too. Bikes are fun.

Have an awesome day today!
