Autumn morning rides before work...

Post by MichaelCarter »

I don't know about anyone else but once we get in to autumn and winter, the likelihood of me dragging myself out for a more than 20 minute ride beofre work is pretty slim...

Having said that though, if I arrange to meet someone it goes up to about 99% likely. For that reason I thought I'd see if anyone fancied tuesday or thursday morning riding - (looking at sunrise time for the next month or two I'd go for maybe 730 till 830).

Couple of choices I thought were Bishopthorpe, Appleton Roebuck etc to Tadcater and back, or maybe York, Helmsley road to Crayke and Brandsby, York. Nothing too speedy, just endurance stuff.

Maybe up for a ride on Tuesday mornings - but I'd guess the 28th will be the soonest I can aim for after Saturday....

I would be up for Tuesday mornings, although working at the Dublin Marathon on the 28th, but after that. Might get my 'sorry ass' moving. Stacey I'm pretty sure would also come.

Brian, Dave, Stacey,

What would be best time and location to meet for you? (I need to be at York College for 845)

Anyone else interested?

Shall we aim for tue 4th nov, and tuesdays after that? (by then the clocks will have done their "thing" so we get more light, and we might get a few more interested as evening light will be a thing of the past by then?)

Sounds good to me.

Stacey works at Nestle which is just up the road from the uni, so anywhere around there is good to meet.

Brian, Dave, Stacey... (anyone else who fancies a ride tomorrow morning?)

I'll wait by the left side of the Helmsley Road (B1363) just beyond the ring road roundabout between 715 and 720. Then I'm thinking of going up to Crayke, Brandsby and then back again. (I thought that might be best route to get Stacey to Nestle without crossing town?)

I'll check this at 10 tonight, see if there any responses (if not, I'll probably set my alarm for 630 and press snooze 14 times and roll in late for work like I usually do!)

Hi,

Sorry wont make it this week as Stacey is on a course in London and I'm running around like a lunatic. However we are both here next week, so will definately be up for it.

Cheers
