Given the forecasts for tomorrow and given that next week is heading towards the late 20's then I suggest that we move the ride to next Sunday. (I don't think the temps have passed 15 C today!)

We can stick with tomorrow but as per Cray's comment, I think they'll be a few pikers coupled with the commencement of daylight savings (so you have an hour less in the sack!)

My vote is for the 4th Nov;

Cheers,

Gary

Whoops! I forgot it's the Red Bull Race on the 4th Nov! :oops:

The 28th it is then! (Subject to rain! :wink: )

Cheers,

Gary

Would we get enough people interested if we made it a recurring thing? Every Sunday at 8am at the bells for whomever is interested? OR have many people gone out of their way to make arrangements for an early Sunday ride?

I normally ride early on Sundays with the WA Human Powered Vehicle Group (wahpv.org), and ALL bike/trike types are welcome! We usually have a couple of DF bikes along, so you certainly will be made welcome if you want to join in. The pace is very social and we stop in a few places for coffee and/or breakfast. I think it will be too early for most pikers here though - 7.00am at the Burswood is the normal starting time. :shock: :wink:

If I'm not keen on planned WAHPV ride, I will often go up into the hills on my MTB. Once again, anyone who wants to join me is most welcome, but it'll be an early start (especially over summer - I dislike the heat of riding later than about 10.00am.)

So, to summarise, I normally have a ride every Sunday anyway. The bicyles.net.au group rides are going to be outside my normal routine, but I'm willing to make occasional sacrifices for you guys .... :D

Cheers,
