Weekend Rides: a two-fer
Riders,
Aren’t you glad we didn’t ride THIS morning? My thermometer indicated it was 10 degrees on the way to work… hmm, isn’t that the temperature where all molecular motion stops? … actually, I think that is -273 degrees Kelvin… but, as far as I’m concerned, anything below 27 degrees Madden is cold enough to hinder human motion. (NOTE: the above may not be factual... I did not have time to check a reference)
With this morning temp being that cold, Saturday morning will feel like a heat wave, eh? Once again, we’ll gather in the New Spring parking lot to roll out at 0900. There will be a group riding 43+ miles and at least one rider riding 26.73 miles…. In 2 or 3 weeks, I’ll be able to join the “regulars” and log the BIG miles… but, for now… 26.73 will have to satisfy my riding itch…
Last week, we had nice group show up… nice way to end January… and this Saturday will be a great way to start February. And believe it or not, there were a group of runners who had just finished a 12 to 15 mile run!!!! In the cold!!!! One of the runners rode with us last June… when we asked her where her bike was.. she said she only rides when she can’t run…. But, the other runner said her husband was looking for a bike… so, it looks like we’ll get another rider in a few months.
Sunday Ride... as detailed below from CR1 Shuey
We had a very good turnout (12) for last Sunday's ride, and the weather will be much better this Sunday. Should be in the mid to upper 60's. Excellent riding conditions!
Meet at NewSpring for a 2:00pm departure. Mark Lacy has agreed to be the ride leader in my absence. Distance and route can be determined by the majority.
Pass along this ride announcement to any other cyclists you think would be interested in joining. I've heard there are some new riders showing up for the SVRs. (Also I don't have an email for Bob Lupino or Jennifer Couch.)
Whaley, if you ride Sunday I look forward to another scintillating ride report!
