Low wind totals so far also. I would suggest to establish the sat ride for 1pm for sure. Since the sunday ride is always @ 2pm, that is when to start. If you are interested, post your intentions so everyone will know what to expect as far as organizing the 'b' group. I will be out this weekend but will help any way I can. mapmyride.com has great routes already posted around the city. Would be a great place to ck out and get a feel for the roads/rides. And maybe the 'b' group should set a goal for ~15-25mile ride for it 1st, group consensus. Not that tough to go 20miles @ 15mph. I think the 'b' ride group has a real good possibility of outnumbering the 'a' ride group. Strength in numbers, oh my. feb 26 and feb 27 paced rides old starbucks: nash st n sat: 1pm sun: 2pm On Wed, Feb 23, 2011 at 9:53 AM, ssp <[email protected]> wrote: ... ...Seems to be a lot of interest. Maybe this weekend can be a good start to many of you who have always wanted to ride but just couldn't get out the door. Good weather, paced rides. If you have never ridden paceline here is an article describing: http://www.bicycling.com/training-nutrition/training-fitness/9-paceline- rules it is really easy but there are a few rules of etiquette to pay attention too. Road cycling is a great/fun experience and as anything new just takes a while to get conditioned for and learn its nuances. Paceline stay together. The purpose of a paceline is for all to ride together. If you want to ride faster then consider the "a" group which will test your limits in the 19+mph ride. The "b" group is for those willing to maintain the 14-18mph pace. Choose accordingly. Again, looks like many of you want to ride. Follow the ggroups and maybe it will come together this weekend for a successful 'b' group to materialize. If your bike needs a tuneup before sat/sun NOW is a great time to go and do. Don's Bike shop is a really easy local place to do this. He checked my bike out after the accident at no fee...he said he does that for bike accidents. That was cool. Remember, all you have to do is walk out the door! The rest is easy. The usual times to meet @ old starbucks(nash st n) sat: 9:30am or 1pm ****depending on consensus sun: 2pm (always) On Wed, Feb 23, 2011 at 9:21 AM, Lee Eatmon <[email protected]> wrote: I plan on riding this year with you guys as well.
