EOI Friday 30th December Ride
Postby leximack » Wed Dec 21, 2011 8:14 pm
Thinking of FRiday 30th December (as i have this day off ). Starting at around 8am ish and heading somewhere (Route TBA), maybe 150ish kms. nothing to drastic, just a chance to get together after the hectic xmas period.
So, what ya think?

Plenty of Xmas cheer going down range so 150kms might be ambitious for me. Also the little one's snout is running green, so I'm switching to sleep optional mode.
Keep us informed of the route/timings and will try to come along or just hit the finish line for the hi-fives and brews.

Will work out route a bit later, i do like Ehlys option though (not so much the start time but route is good)
Russ - leave the SS at home, you WILL need gears

these rides are generally done at a slower pace (25-27km/h usually). We stop alot and eat alot, so if its a training ride your after you will be very dissapointed. Its just a bunch of mates riding along and having fun and having a bit of an adventure in possibly some places you might not ride often (if at all).vander wrote:Need the endurance miles and my training partner is away dont really feel like doing 150km on my own .

Is the 25-27km/hr you mention include the stops or would this be rolling avg speed? I'm chin stroking on this one as i will need the 150km to click over 9000km for the year. I will need to be conscious of the amount of hrs away from home though...
Cheers

25-27 is moving avg, allow about 2hrs all up for stops (hopefully a bit less)Strawburger wrote:Hey Don,
