So, who’s in? I’ve got the day off. So I’d be keen for either a longer rip, or a post coffee follow on? I have no route...

It's my lucky day! I'm in, Hopefully we have a directional leader....I could stitch something together but I would be lost at least 1/4 of the time...Rolf!? Ron? Claire? Alan? Bueller!? Any Takers? let's hide from the wind under the cozy canopy of the trees...

I’m in for trees! I’ll have some roots too, as backup.

I will also bring tissues and use both hands when releasing the products of my chronic sinusitis whilst cycling at or near the front...

I was actually going to do the road ride (I am SO enjoying my summer bike) but with a forecast of 2 degrees (WTF! Is this March in Victoria, or what??) and rain...yuck. I'll hide in the trees and JT's bushes with you guys, too. No loogies or urine, though, please.

Happy to lead a group if two groups makes sense. I know Mark, Rob and Dave like to hammer but have no navigational skills... (it's so nice to feel wanted/useful).

It’s terrible to think that as a naval officer I can’t navigate...

6:00 a.m. in the Cadboro Bay parking lot of Oak Bay High School; roll-out at 6:05. If it's raining, we'll be under shelter by the front doors.

There'll be a smattering of guys and gals with skinny rubber and fenders, but just look for the smartasses sporting fatter rubber and you'll be among friends...

We'll go fart around in the woods and trails until about 7:15 or 7:30. Most days we join the roadies for coffee at Moka House in James Bay, by Fisherman's Wharf.

Hope to meet you in the morning, Damian!
