Monson RR Recon Ride - Sat., 4/8

Post by KTeves »

Is anyone interested in doing a recon of the Monson RR on Sat., 4/8. Thinking morning, say, 8 - 9 AM clip-in. I know the Brumble Bikes Kermesse is on this date, but the weather has sucked, I've been sick, and time is running short. So who's up for it?

I would be up for this... Sunday looks like a great day, better than Saturday for weather. Plus there is no Wells Ave this weekend. Possible move to Sunday?

Yes, Mo, I'm still planning to do this. Although I'm having second thoughts as to the start time. I'm thinking an 11 AM start would be better to let things warm up a bit. Looks like a windy day, but at least the April sun should help. Does 11 AM work?

Will we meet at the start of the route in Monson? I could take someone in my vehicle, but I'm not sure it would make much sense from where you all are coming from. I'm in Boylston.

What kind of pace will you guys be riding this at? Just want a gauge as I'm making some decisions about tomorrow? Also, can I invite another rider (Tom Fagan)? He might be interested, as I think he's racing that day.

I'm not planning on killing it.—say, 19 mph pace? I know Tom, tell him to come along.
