O.K.
About this time of year the trail ride scene starts to get busier.
Billaroo and myself have both doubled up on a ride in November (its all his fault) so I thought it would be a good idea to see if having a ride on the Saturday would be the go.

Winter time is different as there are all the Saturday sports so Sundays are better.

probably saturday because of recovery day afterwards and wash bikes on sunday instead of monday, but mattwoods idea is appealing:2thumbsup

Yeah, I kinda prefer Sat as you can relax have a few jars:drinkup: and watch the rugga till all hours.

Bike washing can be done at leisure on the Sunday

Saturday for me
Like others, gives me a day to recover before getting back to work.
Made Sunday the family day…………kids to young to go riding yet!

Sunday seems to be a popular choice everywhere usually -
I dont care really though - as long as I get to ride at least once a week. Good for the body and mind.

Saturday or Sunday, don't have a preference, but the ride I like best is mid week. Any working week with a ride in the middle is so much more bearable (eg Ardmore) and I like my job.......

Sundays for me. Gives me more recovery time between a week day ride and also gives me Saturday to get the bike ready.

Looking at the poll Danger you may need to start riding on the Wednesday.

Greg Power used to try and tell us that Saturdays were more popular but it never seemed like the rides on Saturdays had as many riders attend. Eventually he changed back to Sundays.

Even if I could ride on Wednesdays as a matter of course it still does not give me that day in the weekend to have the bike ready that riding on a Sunday does.

I don't really care which day, but, once the thursday & friday evening rides start (soon would be good, hint, hint) then riding saturday as well gets a bit problematic.
