Hiya All,

Anyone up for a night or day ride on Wednesday ?
Keep it simple and probably aim for some Terry Hills tracks. I'm open for suggestions.

Anyone ?

Hi Evan,

Back from holiday break and in serious need of some fast Ks to get back into some level of fitness. Need to get back on the case to challenge 'Roid Boy at the times he's been putting in. Perhaps he'll slow down when his missus comes back from the UK? Eye-wink

Anyhow - fast out and back at TH or Oxford Falls would suit Wednesday - 7:30-ish? Oh, so long as when I put the old chain back on bike it stops skipping (sad story of failed chain messing).

Hey all,

I am also back from holidays, so I am looking to get involved in some more rides while I have another 2 weeks off.

Rob, not sure about this fast K's thing. Did you forget you're on holidays mate? No need for such effort around here. And the 7:30 thing? Did you mean in the morning or a night ride?

To all others, I am interested in a Terrey Hills ride, but it would need to be in the morning. I do not ride at night, so if this fits in with ppl's schedule, I am happy to come along. With the cricket on, I will not be riding during the day for the next 3 days. 4 days or more from now is fine. These pommies will not make 4 or more days. Laughing out loud

Anyone else interested?

Wednesday evening sounds good, nothing like a evening/night ride.
Rob - I have about 1hrs burn time on my 15W Halogen and double that on the 5W. So id you want to do more than the perimeter and long we will need to start earlier. Or break less Smiling

Hey Guys,
Wednesday would be a good night, what time would you be heading off?
Heard that Terrey Hills isn't too technical, a smallish 4LED (City)Light might do the trick - what do you think?

I'm going to try and make the St Ives dirt crits beforehand and then meet you after, should be able to make it given B grade finishes about 7. For those of you still on holiday come and give it a go, I don't think it's too serious.

Just trying to cram it all in before my girlfriend returns and my legs return to half their current size...

The consensus seems to be 7.30 Terry Hills? At the shops as usual I take it.

Evan - if we start at 7.30 there'll still be lots of daylight and with economical use of the big light you'll have no worries, besides just stick close to Rob and it'll seem like daylight!

Just to confirm with everyone that we will meet @ 7:30pm @ the shops @ Terry Hills.

Cya all there. Smiling

Evan
PS: Also - if anyone is ordering from batteryspace or equivalent please let me know.

Craig says ...

A ride Wednesday sounds good. I think I will be a starter

Rob's picture

Hurrah! The skipping chain seems to be no more (famous last words?)... so will see you there...

... unless it's raining!

P.S. Anyone fancy going down Cullamine/Booralie/Duffys for a change?

As stated in my original post I'm up for suggestions.

Forgot how nice these trails can be, thx to Jeff for the suggestion:

Also a nice easy way to slide back onto the trails after all that indulgence Smiling
