Allrounder Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 depending on where and avr speed we might be able to join Saturdays
Wannabe Posted January 19, 2016 Author Posted January 19, 2016 Problem with Saturdays is the higher volumes of cars on the roads.Sundays is slightly better/only gets busier later on in the morning.
J∆kk∆ls Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 I'm in. Already did one a few weeks back in the wind. So lets team up and take turns in front if the wind comes out to play.
mikkelz Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 I'd be keen (from Milnerton). Seriously need to get bike fit!
Bankie99 Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Andre you know that you can always count me in along with my team Saturday's are generally our preferred days as well but lets see what everyone else thinks
eraser Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Thks A So you've recovered since W2W I'm in. Prefer Sat but Sun is doable
Thomo Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Problem with Saturdays is the higher volumes of cars on the roads.Sundays is slightly better/only gets busier later on in the morning. If one started early enough, you'd probably miss most of the traffic hotspots heading out from Greenpoint/CBD.The busy areas generally pick up from 8h00 onward by which time you should be in Hout Bay heading back.?
Capricorn Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 if there's a large enough group for Sat, why not look at a both days, and each to their own?
J∆kk∆ls Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 I would be happy with Sat and Sun groups going out.(Not both on the same weekend ) If we start at 05:00 then we could be done by 9ish and end off with a group coffee!
Wannabe Posted January 19, 2016 Author Posted January 19, 2016 The route I take is longer than the official route (117km) so it does take longer, in the region of 4;20, depending on the pace and number of stops. https://www.strava.com/activities/251421517
Wannabe Posted January 27, 2016 Author Posted January 27, 2016 Guys, you do not have to wait for me to call a ride, this thread was created for all and sundry to use.I will not be riding this weekend, must do back to back Mtb LSD rides in prep for the J2C.
