Saturday Ride 9am

[michaelcole]

Anyone up for a morning ride (after the sun comes up)?

[taeves]

I would like to ride. I need to get something longer in. 60 to 75. You up for that? I could ride out to Marlborough and do a loop and ride back if not.

Don't forget your shoulder and knee pads...

Meeting Eves in the am, he's riding west from Waltham.
We'll do some loop around Marlborough, Sudbury, Maynard, Stow...
anyone else want in?

[Cort Cramer]

Start time?

[taeves]

here is what i think the plan is going to be.

I am riding from Waltham to Sudbury to meet Cole at Atkinson Pool, 40 Fairbank Rd
Sudbury, MA 01776. Meet time in Sudbury is 9am. We are going to do a 1.5 to 2 hr loop in that area at a medium pace.

I am not sure what time i am leaving Waltham yet. I will post that info in a little bit.

[Cort Cramer]

This sounds much better than 6am start....

[taeves]

Driving over to meet because my brain hurts

good ride today guys. managed to make it home without any weather. i did have a slight encounter with a truck, myself and a parked car. The parked car got the brunt of the abuse. A pickup truck pulled out into traffic and sandwiched me into the parked car. I am fine and the bike is fine. parked car lost its mirror. Driver of the truck said he was sorry and all that jazz. There was a police officer two cars back that saw the hole thing and when he was getting info from the pickup driver he found something in his record and two more cars showed up. I didn't stick around to see the festivities. I just figured it was karma getting him back for trying to put a hurting on me. I think i might stay off the roads for a couple of days. I have had way too much excitement going on when i ride the roads. either that or i am going to follow Cort's advice and where pads when i ride.
