EDIT - maybe make it a ride to Dubrat's garage sale at Greenslopes, with a ride up Mt Gravatt for good measure !

We are still riding but - only occasionally the Riverloop.Retro man wrote:So whats happening, these rides dying a slow death! you have to keep them going.
Meet-up location depends where we are riding.
For example, 3 of us did a ride from Mitchelton to Nudgee Beach a week ago, this morning we did 50km around the Redcliffe peninsula.
Next week, no idea what will happen, depends a bit on the weather etc.
Let me know if you are up in brissie and we can meet for a ride.

Well to put it in club race lingo, yes one of our clan could ride C-grade, but there would be 4 of us in D-grade and one riding E-grade (E for electric assist).foo on patrol wrote:Just out of curiosity, how quick do you blokes ride and be truthful here, because I've just about got my old roadie going properly and would like to catch up at some point?

Well I can only get a ride in of a Saturday and Sunday and that is providing I don't have to much running around to catch up with. (away all week in a truck) Last yeah I did 1600klms so that will give you some idea of how slow I am.Big_Red wrote:Foo, usually an extended riverloop is done in an average of about 25kph over the 38km. We are not adverse to going a little slower if needed though. That said, regularly doing the rides is a great way of ramping up your fitness. A couple of times in 2013 I actually left the car at home for the missus to use and did some 60, 70, 90, 100+km rides still averaging 25 kph over the ride and i'm not super fit (still need to lose 15 kg). When I jump back on the bike in Feb, i'll be looking to do 5000 km for 2014 - that said we're not looking to race, it's just a couple of blokes looking to get out on the bikes for a nice ride and some good coffee) / brekky after.
Oh I can average 25/27klmh on the flat over 30-40ks if that is any help.

Don't listen to BR, he has delusions of grandeur! We have fun and talk while we ride. And yes coffee and food is mandatory at the endfoo on patrol wrote:Well I can only get a ride in of a Saturday and Sunday and that is providing I don't have to much running around to catch up with.
