Hi Y'all

 

Ok for those of you in Gauteng .....

 

I am introducing a friend of mine to this lovely sport of ours on Saturday morning. We are going for a slow, easy, 50km ride at about 6:30 in da Soufh, we meet at the Panorama Shopping Ceter at 6:15. And we are doing the Lido Route which is very easy.

 

This will be for new people, those who aren't so fit and maybe partners who want to start but don't want to ride with their spouses who are experienced riders.

 

We will be taking the slow guys out and then we will doing another 50km thereafter at a faster pace.

 

There will also be another group of us (about 8) going out again on a 70 - 80km ride in the same area on Sunday which will be a bit faster, but will also make a dicision on route to see if we wanna go farther or not.

 

So if you wanna join us PM me and let me know, so I know how many people to wait for.

WW - cool just confirm with me to look out for her, if you need I'll PM you my cell number.

 

BG - I know you don't like it Wink Unfortuantely if you wanna ride on the road you have to go out that early to miss the traffic, super especially cause it's new in-experienced riders, with not so great bike handling skills. Come on join us, you'll crap at first but after you'll feel great. I also have issues with getting up early,,,,,, BIG ISSUES!!!!

EPoh - from what I've read on the hub you would be bored to death on Sunday riding with us. We would love for you to join us, but I know you would drop us if you were riding backwards.

 

However if you wanna join us please do!!!

 

I know Slowpoke Chilli and I think Ewep are doing Suikerbos on Sunday,else hook up with them so you don't have to do it alone. I told SP we might meet up at the circus for coffee with them.

 

But if you wanna go really slow, let meknow and we'll meet you there.

Amateur If you say slow ride what speed do you have in mind?

I need to start doing some longer slow rides so will be interested in doinf the 2 laps thing. Would you be doing the lido route twice or what route you have in mind for the second 50?

Nooo I think sometimes you just need to sit back, socialise and enjoy the ride. But to be honest I prefer to be out in the reserve in the nature away from the buzz. The reserve is so nice and green at the moment and before long it is winter again and then it turns dull and ugly Shocked

Hi IanC, we'll I will be taking my firend out who has only done spinning in the gym, so on Saturday we are looking at probably doing around 18 to 20 average and yes we will be doing the Lido twice. The second lap will be faster as SP will be cracking a wip behind my ass to get me average up, so there we will go as fast as my legs will carry me, hopefully averagin anything 25km and up!

 

And I don't want any smart remarks about the speed hubbers, some of us have taken some time off and need to get back into it slowly!Smile
