Saturday Sufferfest

[sskrobek]

Any takers for the Saturday sufferfest this wkd. May18. 6am cook street starbucks.
Still waiting to see if there will be a metchosin hillfest #4 this wkd???
Are you planning round four Andrew?

Sorry to disappoint Steve, but rather than another Metchosin Hillfest, I have decided to join the OBB ride tomorrow morning at 9. I have a bunch of work tonight so a 6am Sufferfest isn't too appealing, and Sunday looks rainy so I'm going to go into lemming mode and join the masses to Lands End and back. If you don't do the Sufferfest, join us at 9! Andrew

I’ll join you Steve. Andy

[sskrobek]

no worries AJ. See you there Andy, and any others that want to join.

I rarely miss wheelers Saturday but I like the idea of doing some hills. Especially after getting dropped on ash today.

See you there.

Hi Guys,

I am new to town, hoping to join you for tomorrow's sufferfest (love the name!). See you at Starbucks @ 6:00am.

AJ, I'll also be on the OBB 9:00am ride in the morning, and like you I'm up to my neck in work tonight. See you on the ride tomorrow.

[AJ Neale]

Note to Rob: Unless I'm mistaken, Steve, Andy, and Damian ( welcome! ) are intending to do the Tripleshot Sufferfest, which is basically the OBB ride starting at 6:00. So there are no hills to speak of ..... unless you count Panorama!

Thanks Andrew.

[sskrobek]

Andrew is correct about the sufferfest ride (similar route as OBB ride). But will be adding a trip up the observatory this time. Hope to see you there

If the roads are dry in the morning I’ll prob join you Steve. Unfortunately, my winter bike (and fenders) is in the shop. AJ

[sskrobek]

No worries Andy. I will be riding my summer bike regardless of the weather. Forecast is for less then 1mm

June 1st sufferfest? I’m in! Anyone else?

[sskrobek]

Awesome Dave! Always looking for more riders early on a Saturday. For others interested usual start time and location. 6am cook st starbucks. roll out at 6:05am. I have to be back in town by 9:30-45am so cannot add on the extra km this wkd. Still looking for 100km, Usual route, observatory, time permitting. A2 pace. See you out there.

Ryley Rohan and I will be doing a big hill ride on Saturday morning too (100k/2000m+ elevation). Maybe we could roll out together.
