Slave Posted April 16, 2009 Author Posted April 16, 2009 Maybe he's had his wings clipped or maybe cleaning that shiny new red rocket of his. Where is Spaso, he joined the chicken run last week and kept the puppies company. Dude, you seem to forget one thing, They don't have a category for riders like me. If they did, I'd be like "grand master vet zz" or some junk. Thise okes (vets A) flew past us on the first berg run we did. They would slaughter me if I even tried to look like I was keen on riding with them. They'd drop me downhill, dude never mind uphill. It would be like a kid on a tricycle trying to keep up with you. 'sides, they ride too early. That time of the day, it's cold, dark and a damn fine time of day to be in dreamland. GO just phoned, will chat to him ' bout riding Saturday and Wed. BRB.
Slave Posted April 16, 2009 Author Posted April 16, 2009 'k, so the birdman is flying with us Saturday and prob'ly Wed as well. He'll meet us at Xumbugs, looks like cheese factory loop on Saturday.
Trubie Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Can someone please just send some (actually a lot) reminders tmrw, about the times and meeting places - Slave's training is interfering with his wireworks, so he tends to forget or mix up dates, times and places.Oh my word - just remembered Kid has trouble with the time also, please make sure to use words and numbers when confirming times

Let's see if I have this correct. Kid is going away for the weekend to ride the wilro. On tuesday, which is actually Wed the 22nd we going to vote about riding before we vote or was that the other way around? On Sunday I'm meeting my drug dealer (AKA NArc) and we gonna criuse the steps. and Friday last week, we did Nuwbies Epic? The week before, some duce got a puncutre in the berg and delayed brekkie. That about right?

Narcosis Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Ok so my plans for the weekend and next week: Rode last night ended up with a nice easy cruise up Klipriver, past two other cyclistsSaturday - bone cracker so planning to go out on the mountain bike and do a quiet 25 clicks, nice recovery ride potential for the slave.Sunday - leaving Mulbarton at 08h00 to do the cheese factory loop with Big Mark, probably about 50 clicks Wednesday 22nd April - Meeting Slave's alter egos Brian Ferry and David Gilmour and the other ex Roxy Music guys for a ride to pay penance and puke up a lung - think that this was at about 09h20 if I remember correctly.

Frosty, I would have to keave tomorrow morning and you guys can pass me tomorrow, lap me again on Monday and I should manage to finish at the same time as you on Tuesday.

Slave Posted April 16, 2009 Author Posted April 16, 2009 Narco, left home at 16h30 and tried to make it to the Glen by 17h00. Failed by 3 minutes. So today, I have to do it again. Leaving a bit earlier and taking easier route. Was back home by 18h15 after going home via Glenvista and then onto Klipriver (S). My teenager was finished by the time we got home. He's been off his bike for a number of weeks ad reconned he could take me over any distance.(He is much faster than me, but I'm still fit.) He made the major mistake of overstimating his fitness and ability and he got a good solid wake-up call from the Ol man. Not that I wll drop him for much longer. He really can ride fast when fit and he klaps me.
