RJ23 Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 I'm in two minds. Bit worried that it will turn out to be. a) Too slow a ride if I'm not feeling strong enough. B) Going too hard should I feel strong.Think I'll stick with the skinny wheels, and just ride to my HR. 3 Scott's confirmed for tomorrow
Wannabe Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 3 Scott's confirmed for tomorrow Excellent. See you guys there. Bring along a lot of patience.
Tiny K Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 So, just to get this right, there are two rides happening from this thread tomorrow (do I notice a split or is just me ) 1. GMan / 'Dale / Airbender / Puncheur's 125Km, 2 passes - starting at Medi Clinic at 7:15. Ave speed - 27Km/h 2. Wannabe's 70Km route - starting at Mc D's at 7:30. Ave speed <25Km/h I am going with the longer distance........ just because I can

Don't want to try and hang onto your wheels and then blow up between here and nowhere. At least I know with my proposed route, there is a shorter version available, should it be needed.

Well, the longer route has a short option too - over helz then left instead of right. Cool man. I wanted to have a look at that boot mount rack of yours - see if I can make it work on smallh's chico. Gonna be spending a bit of time at Puncheur's crib after the ride tomorrow.
Wannabe Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Dude WTF? Where's the Wannabe Wheelsuckka mentality and spirit I know so well? Getting soft in my old age (or is it because I don't have a certain person around me, telling me, HTFU!!) :D

Only problem is that your pace will be a good deal higher. At least I know I can go slower without frustrating the crap out of you. . Will be at home (I hope, got lots to do at home) Pop around, quite sure it will work on the Chico.
