Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted March 15, 2011 Author Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) Maruis, I though about that. A good time to start. I think we need to do a dry run to check if it works out. Next week got a Public Holliday , not sure if a lot of guys is going away (or doing long miles the Monday morning), but if we can give it a try on monday night, just to get the timing right, I dunno any suggestions? Its to long to wait for the April public days? I think ANDRAG is very central, but we need to be central enough for most to get from work, jump on the bike and get on time for the start 18H45 ??????? there is no difference in getting back home at 20h00 or 20h20 (the real benefit, you not going to indulge in a big supper that time of the night, and your weight will be under control during the winter months, even loosing a couple of kg's) At least the start time suits most?????? One rule, If the road is wet (rainy) we do not ride. Everyone knows when the noth wester is blowing. :-) Edited March 15, 2011 by popeye
Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted March 15, 2011 Author Posted March 15, 2011 Mr Legs, dont worry, I will connect them for you. Once you see the route, you will sell your road bikes and only experience the dark side (or is it muddy side)?

samson99 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 also keen. Won't be there monday night unfortunately for the test run.
robo@wp Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Nice route b"larye + rail etc. I think Monday is not a good time to start, how about the tuesday night? Nice route on the farms.
Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted March 16, 2011 Author Posted March 16, 2011 What about Monday Morning, we go out on the routes, the guys will see the areas in day time and get the feel of the directions/roads surface etc?
Musashi Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I'm also interested, but with the Epic and then 3 weeks holiday in April, I'll only join you guys come May. My suggestion: give the ride a name ("Popeye's night ride"?) and every week start a thread to check whether the ride is on and who's joining. And Popeye doesn't have to start the thread each time, anyone can.
MariusL Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 What about Monday Morning, we go out on the routes, the guys will see the areas in day time and get the feel of the directions/roads surface etc? I was thinking the same thing...
Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted March 16, 2011 Author Posted March 16, 2011 Nou praat met my !!! Maandag 21 Maart 2011 = The official dry run Sodat almal die grondpad kan leer en weet hoe hy ry. 'n Goeie ding, hoe meer MTB's daar ry, hoe veiliger word dit, want glo my, dis partykeer baie stil en eensaam 7H00 ? Ek sal 'n nuwe topic start en julle sit julle name as julle daar gaan wees maandag

Wannabe Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Yes Pops, don't give up after one try. Think the timing was just a bit off. Sure more people will be interested.
'Dale Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Now you're talking. Can't do the CWC Wednesday rides, will surely join you on a few (as soon as I return from my self imposed cycling ban) Wonder what your offence was, man?
'Dale Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Great initiative, popeye! Hope you have many attendees. Keep it safe, Riders!!
