Robert Lofthouse Posted May 30, 2006 Share Hey, it's my BDay too - would love to spend it riding - the only problem is the wife is apparently putting on a nice birthday lunch for me (so I hear), so I'll have to content myself with a shorter, earlier spin around the block.sp, did you know we were born on the same day. Where were you born? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowpoke Posted May 30, 2006 Share yep kc, i know that! smileys/smiley2.gif i was born in good old Pta!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichH Posted May 30, 2006 Share Sigh, I'll have to keep a close eye to keep it on track ;-)<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />OK, so far we have epoh interested, Sir Fed interested, Cervelo maybe, and SBR220. I'll ask my dad if he's interested as well. Then there will be slowpoke (come along just to see her fancy new Garmin!) and me.What would people feel like doing? I've never ridden more than 120km (only once) but I can always catch a lift in the Subaru when I'm tired. Nice route ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cycle Junkie Posted May 30, 2006 Share Michelle, the trip to Magaliesburg from Fourways is ? 80km and it is really easy. Ask anyone that did it on Sunday. If you want, i can mail you our route map and profile that we took on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epoh Posted May 30, 2006 Share Cycle Junkie.. Ahh okay! I know who you are.  wheelsucker!@$ It was the tandem that won the Panorama Tour so it was not just any Tandem smileys/smiley17.gif MichelleH, I am happy with doing anything up to 160Km but it doesnt have to be that far. I dont know JHB very well, so I cant really comment on any routes. I reckon a quiet route without lots of traffic will be good. I prefer lots of climbing but for this ride I will just ride along whatever you guys decide.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewep Posted May 30, 2006 Share O ja, if I want to, may I stop and get in the support bakkie? 160km, sjeez, that's FAAARRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichH Posted May 30, 2006 Share I agree ewep! No way I'm attempting 160km without backup! Although anyone who's ridden with me knows I have trouble giving up until I'm nearly dead! Oops!I've asked the birthday girl what she would like to do (it's only polite!)Cycle Junkie, would love map, profile, etc (will PM you).ewep, I've offered once, I will offer again... I have a Geneses in my garage that can be borrowed if you're desperate!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBR220 Posted May 31, 2006 Share I would like 140-160 my normal sat ride is 140 i will fit in with you guys but lets make it longer than 80, it could be a training ride for the Jock to get the Ks into the legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amoryns Posted May 31, 2006 Share SBR220..watse roete doen jy om 140 in te kry.....ek kry met my roete 110km in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowpoke Posted May 31, 2006 Share hmmmm, i must just bear in mind that i mustn't let my ego get in the way of my health and wellbeing.... i'll be riding (give or take a km or two for days 3 and 4 - we're staying at a different stop on the 3rd night to where we were last year):169km on 7/6138km on 8/6125km on 9/6165km on 10/6152km on 11/6so either i'll cope happily with 160km on the 16th or i'll keel over and try to land in the support car sooner. thing is i dunno how much space there will be in it if i look at the above postings! smileys/smiley2.gif120 - 140km sounds best i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichH Posted May 31, 2006 Share OK, 120 to 140k it is. I'll put some thought into a route and keep everyone informed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
