Remembrance day Ride anyone??

[jeremy]

Wondering if anyone is up for doing a sunday type of ride on wednesday morning?

[Plawless]

You bet Jeremy. Sorry I guess with so many new members we havent been clear enough with how things go. We ALWAYS do a Sunday ride on a Holiday. The one exception (so far) has been Xmas day. But who knows.... maybe this year?

So on a Holiday we meet at Fairfield Starbucks at 7am for coffee depart at 7:30 and do teh Sunday ride thing.

See you all tomorrow.

I don't want to take anything from TSC convention, but I find the Sunday ride takes up a lot of the day and the later start upsets circadian rhythms already painfully established by 5:30 wake-ups.

Would anyone join me for a regular Wednesday morning hills ride at 6? I don't think I'd drag myself out of bed and do the full 4, 3, and 2 unless I had some peer pressure to goad me on...

Sadly, Pure Vanilla's closed on Remembrance Day. But the new Discovery Coffee on OB Ave. (same block as OBB) will be open at 7. We could just swoop down Foul Bay instead of Caddy Bay after our final run round Tolmie...

[Plawless]

Good idea Rolf but may I make one suggestion? Instead of doing regular hills then going to Discovery Coffee why not do the regular hills then meet up at Fairfield Starbucks. That way some who did hills can join the holiday ride or at least everyone can caffeinate in one big happy group.

[Josh.E]

I'd be up for doing both rides back to back. Meet at fairfield starbucks usual time in between them (even though the coffee at discovery is 1000 times better)
That'd make for another good holiday epic, just like thanksgiving sunday.

Hey Rolf, you could always join the farm team ride. We meat at Richmond and Richardson at 6:00 with coffee afterward. We haven't seen you out for that one for a while.

So, anyone planning on being there for hills tomorrow morning? I'm planning on doing both rides.

[Lister Farrar]

I'll do hills and at least part of the later ride. I'm still on eastern time, so I might as well suffer as lie awake in bed!

[Roland]

I'll do hills if we get 5 confirmed riders.

[Plawless]

I'm in. Both rides will be AWESOME!

[Rolf]

Thanks, Dave. But I've been foregoing the farm team for hills because I'm sick of being back of the bus on the latter. As a wise man once said: to ride hills better, ride more of them.

Roland: for hills we appear to have at least Fast Lawless, Fister, Fast Erickson (sorry Jeremy) and me. And I'm pretty sure Alan committed this morning. So come.

[Roland]

I need at least 2 of the 5 to be female. Then I'll come.

[Josh.E]

Betcha Kim and Lisa will be out.
so come

[Rolf]

I need at least 2 of the 5 to be female. Then I'll come.

You're a dirty birdie.

The best you can probably hope for is that Alan rides bare-legged, as he did this morning. Or, if you want to do the hills nice and slow for a change, you could stick with me -- I usually start crying like a girl by my third Sinclair.

[Rita]

I need at least 2 of the 5 to be female. Then I'll come.

So this morning, you had some foresight and knew that your female quota wouldn't be fulfilled and hence you stayed at home?

For tomorrow, I can offer 1, which would make 1.5 together with Alan - sorry Alan, unless you shave your legs, you count only for half a woman If you round 1.5, you get 2, so that should do!

[Plawless]

Wow, now we all know for sure that the Count is feeling better - great math skilz Rita!

[The Princess]

Wow, a bunch of keeners for the hills - cool. Now if only I knew who all of you were....I leave for two months in the summer and don't know anyone when I get back - geez. Well, I can tell you that Miss Kim will not be on the ride tomorrow because she's riding her butt off in Tucson. But I just love hill day so I'll probably be out.

No worries Rolf, Fast Erickson was actually what the ladies called him in highschool.

[Alan]

Good thing I only count for half a woman. My bare manly legs a little tough for your eyes in the morning or what? I'm only posting this note to test my new avatar...
