I'm really pleased John has kicked this off. I've been doing this ride for over 20 years but I thought last year we had finally lost the critical mass needed to make this ride worthwhile. Like Nick I got fed up dragging myself across York on the off chance that someone else will turn up! But two or three riders isnt a chaingang - its a team time trial! Six riders are at least whats needed and a club this size should be able to muster that. If you are doing the Saturday training rides you should be doing this ride if you can - its a simple route and fast and the best race training you can get - not for hiding in the bunch but working in a break. I will make every effort to be there.
