Yep had a great morning out(except for the little whoops on the way home :oops: )

Good to ride with a big bunch (my first time).

As long as my new rear mech hanger turns up in time , hope to be there next saturday. :D

Thanks to a couple of the guys that towed me along for half the day(or more) :wink:

I would not bet on it. There is a 50% chance that Jule liar will cancel Australia Day. :x

Barry why haven't you added the km tool bar to your sig yet!

My kms will have a good increase once I stop this silly mountain biking faze I am going thru at the moment. So much harder to do the extra kms when riding singletrack up and around hills.

He is crafty like that, he found me on facebook and I don't use skull or anything that resembles my real name and my profile picture isn't me.

Training is the sowing of a seed I suppose. How about sharing your training tools with us Rob? :?:

email from the CEO.......

Yes we have a public holiday Thursday !

So Dome Cycling rules apply …

There will be no 6:00am morning ride

But there will be an 8:00am gentlemen’s ride (all that means is that it’s not a quick as a Saturday run !)

The course will most likely be seven mile beach and return.

.....translates to.........
DOME Pre ride (AT) 7am sharp, turn right at cambridge and do Grasstree :)

No Master6 today, guessing he was reconning the course for Sunday. I ended up off the front, solo'd for 35ks and repeats of Tunnel Hill. Good ride for me. :D

Master6 is a specialist Saturday Domer. :D No need to check the course for Sunday, as it is a ride for true gentlemen only, and I aspire to finish with every other starter. Are you joining us on Dales' canter?

Are you interested in riding up on Friday morning, or do you need to do your bit to keep Australia running?

My sincere thanks to the working class :)

Hi Guys, I know this has been put up before but to verify if it is still valid :oops: , Would anyone mind me joining the Saturday ride and if not what are your times for the Non elite Group? I rode a fair distance with some guys a few weeks back whilst comming up the Howden hill and would love to join for the social and of course the coffee after :D

Thanks

I am a regular participant on the Dome saturday rides, and I am sure you will be most welcome. Elite? No, not here :D We are all pretty ordinary, and very varied. The main ride leaves at 8am on saturdays, and there is usually another ride for "recuperating" riders a little later. I am responding in case none of the Dome leaders see your enquiry.

Send your enquiry to Peter at the following address:-

domecycling@bigpond.com

Look forward to meeting you.

ah, that was a great Dome ride, as i did race the next day i gave the legs a flogging up some hills. Good riding santa who would have done 20kms more than me, Dogga you missed out one a good ride....your work has a lot to answer for.

ride - http://app.strava.com/rides/7080957

the only traffic upset was the tool that pulled across 3 lanes of traffic on davey st - the busy st - during the weekly market at lunch time without using his indicator. For a few seconds i found myself chasing him down....then i realised what i was doing
when do we stop for coffee???
