To carry on the pun, I was hung out to dry trying to keep up with the fast group this morning, racing around the 'short' Cuballing loop (about 30 km?)., which has quite a few small hills, up which I needed hoisting (sorry about that).
Congratulations Tim on your blogging and track ride. I'm not sure about you being an 'old dog' though!
We definitely have enough riders for two morning ride groups now, leaving at the same time (6 am from the Recreation Centre parking lot). For the beginners, this may look like a bit of a race, but they can now ride as a group and take it easier, while the faster riders get stretched. Tom, Chris and Paul set the pace, with Craig, Peter and Chris P mixing it with them, and me floating off the back. Chris P is just getting back his full fitness after suffering knee pains, then getting his bike adjusted to solve the problem.
Next ride is at 6 am on Thu morning (please turn up before 6, because we leave at 6), same place. Think about the group you want, and you can set your own direction.
A note: Sunrise is now after 6.00 am, so it is a good idea to get back flashing lights and a front light fitted. In winter, you will need a good front light for most of the ride.
