Mid week evening ride?

Post by MCullen » Sun Apr 11, 2021 8:40 pm

Dear Riders

I’m just gauging interest in a Medium ride on maybe a Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday evening?

I’m very conscious that John at Prologue is kindly supporting a Tuesday and Thursday chain gang and a Wednesday morning ride so I’m gauging interest in whether there would be interest in some short medium rides that offer an alternative and complement what John is supporting?

Maybe circa 25miles so that could easily take in PennyPot, Darley, Dyke Lane, West End, back over Icy corner.

It’s more of an Westerly route but we could look at others too?

We would have to adhere to the relevant C-19 restrictions as usual.

Please let me know if people would be interested.

Michael

Tuesday chain gang was started by a couple of cappo riders initially and then it got turned into a rip your legs off, who can hang on the longest 'chain gang', which understandably put a lot of people off. Don't think prologue had anything to do with it.

Frosty, do you mean a pacey ride round Penny pot circuit or a more sociable one?

It’s a good idea.

What kind of time works?

Hi (Julian?)
We pretty much did that last night and it worked well, all working together.

See you on a ride!
