Dirty Sanchez Posted December 3, 2012 Share At what pace are you looking at doing said ride? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agteros Posted December 3, 2012 Share I have no idea... relaxed but not slow? Been a year since I've been on the MTB offroad, otherwise it has only done Critical Mass duties. Have done a lot of road riding in the last year though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONS Posted December 3, 2012 Share We are going to Breedts on Sunday morning, but its SLOW - 12-15km ave speed. Relaxed ride to stretch the legs. Let know if anyone wants to join. Otherwise am sure we will pass you somewhere along the route. Edited December 3, 2012 by MONS Wayne68 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nancy Drew Posted December 3, 2012 Share Mons, first off.... my MTB is still in its bike bag since Hell & Back which means I'll have to unpack and re-assemble it..... but more importantly, I'm waiting to find out what my son's soccer schedule looks like.... if it allows, then I'll join you guys. If not, I'll make sure there's coffee waiting for you anyway You're always welcome, that's what the place is there for Wayne68 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agteros Posted December 3, 2012 Share If it is Sunday I am also keen to join. I can do 15km/h to shebeen and back...I'm riding on Sunday - whether Nance joins or not. Prefer her to be there though... Shebeen might be a bit further than what the others want to go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
