I agree with the growing consensus to keep the ride at 5:45pm. If
Rick's ride has low turn-out or you want to test your legs, you can
catch the 5:45pm Kix guys...

Morning Rick:
Why are you changing times? All of the other rides start at 5:45
and have been well attended so I don't think that start time is the
issue. As other stated the weather and Holiday week changed a lot of
peoples schedule? I personally prefer the 5:45.

I appreciate all of the feedback regarding the
need for changing the Tuesday Rick's Ride format. The consensus was
that it was various circumstances coming together all at once that kept
most of the riders away last week. More a matter of coincidence than
any deeper meaning.
There will only be one change in the ride:
IT WILL BEGIN AT 6:00pm SHARP!
The ride will be the same with one request: I ask our strongest riders
to hold back on the throttle just a bit as we head up Coley/Kemp to
allow more riders to stay on without going into the red so early in the
ride. Many of us do not have the time to get in a proper warm-up, and,
hammering right out of the shoot does not really add much to the
overall average speed, and, may actually take away some strong legs
later in the ride.
We still want to ride fast, but, with just a bit more of a sense of
controlling things a bit until we hit Patterson on the way out. A
steady, hard pace without sudden surges as new riders go to the front
is how we were doing it earlier. This falls on our strongest riders:
those who are in the best form. (You guys know who you are...)
Date: Tuesday, June 8
Time: 6:00pm SHARP!
Place: St. Francis
Distance: 31 miles
*Course: Standard
Pace: 22-23
*If you are not familiar with the Standard course please email me
privately and I will send you the directions.
Let's see you out there! My ride wants the "buzz back"...
