? - Silly Solstice Ride (Cross Edition)

[JTyre]

OK cross-cretins, let's get serious about this. Last year was SOOOO much fun. Let's do it again, Baily's and all.

The idea is that we take turns improvising laps in and around Beacon Hill Park, lifting our noses whenever we cross paths with the roadie conformists.



Sign-up or just show-up:  Tuesday December 24: 5:30am for coffee at Cook Street Starbucks and 6am start at the (heavy) petting zoo.

In!

Is that a flagpole on my chin? Or just an infected zit?

Someone in our group is already prepared:

Uhm, who could that be? Bailey's, luxurious looking countertop, and telltale reflection in the mirror.

JT, no lie - those were the FIRST things placed in our kitchen after the contractors were shoo’d away.

Not plates, not utensils, not glasses.....Baileys.

Alright, I'll stop my moping and come out for this.

That's great to hear, oh bearded one!

With all of your time off, we're hoping you haven't lost any of your off-road skills or much of your fitness.

Is that a flagpole on my chin?

Nope. Just happy to see us.

I'm in. But I strongly recommend not experimenting with bailey's and sticking with tri-flow.

I thought this ride IS all about the Baileys!
I have Baileys but no flask. Louise can we store it in your camel back?

It felt good to get out there as a Club and get silly once again (in our own special ways!) Hopefully we don't have to wait a full year again to the next one...

What a great Christmas Eve morning! Geoff’s impromptu dual slalom, jared’s Forest crawl and fence hop, cold and windy sunrise toasts - I am so truly thankful for the folks in this club.

Great pictures! Sorry to have missed this silly fun ride. Thanks for being such a fun and welcoming group of cycle crossers. Merry Christmas everyone!
