Sunday Dec 4

Post by barton bourassa »

Just to give folks a heads up, some of us were thinking of going into the Western Communities, Prospect, Munns, northwest on Willis, back to Wallace, find our way to Oldfield via West Saanich, then Interurban to coffee. About 100K.
Here is a proposed route:http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=5206163
I do hope the link works!

Anyway, the idea I think is if folks are interested, and it does look like it to be a nice day with a few dry days before, those that want to do this can meet at Discovery Coffee on Discovery near Douglas for a 7:20 departure. They are open at 6:30 so plenty of time to get a good shot of caffeine before the ride.

Anyone interested?

Barton.

I'm in, so long as (i) the weather holds and (ii) I don't have too much fun at the Xmas party on Saturday!

By the way, pace is expected to be at a B or B minus pace, a sunday ride pace. Staying together is the goal. Quick ones can charge the hills and come back down and ride back up with the slower ones. The idea for these long Sundays is to do long moderate pace base miles.

Round trip, 3:30.

Maybe a 7 AM rollout so we can have coffee after and be home by 11ish? Discovery opens at 6:30 AM.

A 7:00am start from Disco@Disco works for me, too...

I think I would be in if people will be willing to wait a little.
