Saturday Crossfest

Post by wonger »

Anyone interested in the early morning cross mission this week? 6:00 a.m. with lights on at the Douglas St. Starbucks?

Anyone?
Anyone?
Bueler?

It's an off week for Cross on the Rock, so if you're not going to the single speed Worlds it's a great chance to practice those bike handling skills.

Hmm, a cross type ride - how mean will you be? Will I cry during or after the ride? I think I am in if there are others. Otherwise a B style sufferfest it is.

Interested, but my lights aren't good enough.

Dare ya to do the super d Sunday on your cross bike Geoff. Jelly roll and Lumpy pants will be a challange, but you'll kick ass on the regional trail climb, and if you think fast enough, Who's yer daddy and night shift should be rideable. Dunno about that drop into the TTA though. Buy ya a beer if ya clean that.

Mandy and I rode the course this afternoon. 13 minutes to get to the end of Lumpy Pants, so I'm no contender for the title!

Lister your light is fine. And I have about three that you can use. Besides, you know the route. I think that Michael needs at least you to join us (as do I) if we are going. If it's just two I think I'll go with the regular Saturday group.

Which leads me to my next point - where is everyone?

I'm keen to crossfest it again - even more time in the dark on the trails tomorrow! I'm only good to follow, not lead, as I'm not sure of the route (plus I'm slow). Michael can cry on my shoulder as we try to keep up with Wonger & his luminescence.
