Benoni - Sunday 18-03-2012 group ride

[Richard the Lion Heart]

A few of us are planning on doing another 80km+ ride out towards Irene on Sunday morn, meeting at Homestead Dam around 6. Please DM me if you are keen to join, link for the route and garmin stats here

[TNT1]

I might. Wot's a DM?

[Richard the Lion Heart]

Ok point taken - please send me an SMS on 0832894828 if you are keen to join

[Wayne Potgieter]

A DM is a dive master.

 

He is the guy holding the buoy line so you dont get lost underwater.

 

Where you boys riding that you need a buoy line?

 

Would love to, would be nice to meet you chaps. But will be in Hong Kong on Sunday.

[Richard the Lion Heart]

Hey I have fallen off a few bridges, so a buoy line would come in handy (especially as I am doing my first Sani2C in May and there are some mean arse floating bridges there). Give us a shout when you are back would be nice to have a few more guys to ride with.

 

P.S. DM is direct message in twitter talk

Hi Pierre - we are training for Sani2C so we are doing quite long rides i.e. 3 hours on Saturdays, 4 to 5 hours on Sundays and 1.5 to 2 hours early morning weekday rides (Tues, Wed and Thurs). So if you are up for a 30 to 40km ride in the week let me know.
