Any crossers heading out? I'm cleared for Wednesday's but don't think I have ever been on a FarmCross ride before, so I'm keen to follow.

Ron, I plan on showing up with knobs. It is supposed to be a dark and stormy morning, so maybe we can shoulder our bikes and run on the beach while marveling at the surf. Hmm, maybe this is why I am a follower.

At least you're not a knob.
I'll see you there and am happy to bring my usual "lead from the middle" approach to things.

Ron; goes like any other ride except coffee is at cook village.

He didn't mean it Todd. You're a knob in my books.

Are you guys likely to follow the traditional farmcross protocol and come up shelbourne with the farm road ride?

See! I knew there was something established about this ride. Yes is the answer.

L3, is this a good day to hit that beach in Cordova bay?

Tuesday nights suck because I have to read these posts with the knowledge that I can't ride most Wednesday mornings.

I’m in for some FC fun! I‘ve gone three long weeks without.

And if it means you can join us, Louise, we’ll follow the Shelbourne Protocol®️—at least until we find you. :lol:

The kooky winds can make beaches extra salty, wet, sandy fun with crashing waves etc. But storm surge can also reduce ride-ability.

Forest offers good shelter from direct wind, but then blowdown from the first good blow of the season can be a problem—not to mention the danger of active tree-fall.

So: shall we just stay spontaneous and go whichever way the wind blows?

If you wanna ride up to Arbutus Cove/Hollydene right about now you should be good for a low tide. Tmrw morning, not so much. (I think that is the beach you meant?)

I will plan to be out but it will be dependent on the health of my household. If sick-ish hubby doesn't get up to get kid 1 to early morning choir, then I won't be out.

See you hopefully on Shelbourne around 620, per protocol.

Sorry I missed it you guys! I was up half the night with a freaked out kid and a power outage and it was the later half so pretty hard to get up when you have just fallen asleep :roll:
