training rides this weekend


Hello All!!

I know this is late notice but I am leading a couple of training rides this coming weekend, (june 5 and 6) in hamilton and toronto respectively. Here is the link to the details of them both. My email address is on it so if you are to make it out, shoot me a msg.

I look forward to seeing many of you out this weekend. It is suppose to be a so-so weekend, with some scattered showers.

Thanks!

If I can get the right bus from downtown and figure out the way up, I'll be there tomorrow.

Hey that 32km ride on Sunday in Toronto looks up my alley! What pace are you hoping to be going at?

I'm hoping I can keep up. I tend to have left foot cramps in this weather at the start. Really looking forward to riding with a group and on paved road!

Edited to add:

I am still up at 2:08 a.m. and it's supposed to lightning all day. I'm not ridingin that unless it does it next weekend. See you all in Toronto!

Hi!
The pace is quite easy. When I ride alone I try to keep at about 30 km/hr, but as a group, I will ride to whatever matches everyone else.  Whatever pace that you go is what we all try to do.  As long as the group stays together.

As for sunday, the weather seems to not behaving. Right now it says saturday overnight to rain hard, rain in the morning, and light rain in the afternoon.

If people are good with riding in the rain, I am game. I would actually prefer not to, but......the last time I rode in the rain, it took me a while to clean the bike after.

Let me know what you think.

I'm dropping out tomorrow morning. The forecast just looks horrible... but I am going to try and do that ride in the afternoon/evening

P.S. any reason you chose to go along Commissioners St as oppose to going down further to Cherry Beach and along the path there? Takes you right to Tommy Thompson...
