Endymion just sent out email, and article posted on advocate, that Friday- Sunday are all options to roll. Says Thursday a decision will be made.

Members are to be "on call" as early as Friday at noon according to the Krewe but things will be discussed at the pre parade meeting.

Going from Cooter Browns to Mid-city is a hell of a bike ride.

Not too bad, depending where. Carrollton, Fountainbleau, jeff Davis, greenway if needed

All the people calling them must've forced their hand to send an email. Hoping they wait until Thursday to decide, and that the weather looks better.

Yeah they won't make a call this early. It's gonna have to be a definite wash out for saturday night for them to make a call before Friday.

As of now, I doubt the parade gets moved from Saturday in MidCity. The weather will probably be wet, but not a washout and if the trend continues with the rain starting light Saturday, concerns over flooding won't be an issue. Subject to change but right now, I don't see a move being necessary.

Friday at noon? Geze. That's crazy. It's a 70% on Friday vs 80 sat

I wonder what the turnout will be if we roll regular route Friday night.

I guess the question now, is do we roll through the dome again Saturday for the Extravaganza?

nope, they wouldn't bring the floats back just for the dome loop.

They won’t make the call until Friday. Endymion hates moving the parade.
They will hold out as long as they can.
Don’t expect an answer until Friday mid-day/afternoon.
There is almost one thing guaranteed, we’re not riding Sunday. It’s either Friday Night, Saturday or Canceled.

People that spend 4K to ride will be glued to their emails Friday, not ignoring it to party.

Won’t roll at noon, more likely 5pm. Noon is to get logistic and riders to the route via buses, etc.

So if it rolls on Friday it would be the Uptown route. Correct?
