    as with the established wednesday night ride, at the end of daylight savings there will be a few hardy souls willing to carry on, but they soon disapear as the weather gets colder, summer 08-09 I went on a lot of group rides, the end of daylight savings was when I learnt if you want to carry on riding, either get used to riding alone or find 1 or 2 friends willing to HTFU too

    O.K I'll be the firs to admit - IM SOFT. There, its been said. No excuses anymore, I am soft and need to harden up for the winter. I think a new bike might be just the answer - I reckon I should treat myself, then I'll be much tougher. (Don't hold me to that)

    hmm, ok so I foresee a lot of riding alone going on. o well, such is life. No doubt I wil pack it in on nasty days as well. Use the time to fix my seat and sort out the shocks. Biggest problem is that I have time during weekdays and hardly anyone else does. Have found a couple of hardy souls in the BFTP group who can dodge work during the week so that might be it for me over winter.

    You're not soft Katie. Sensible is all, Im getting carried away is all, Ignore me and I'll go away until summer.

    if these are anything like the weds night ride, a few hard core riders will turn up for a few weeks then its pretty much all over.
    anyway, the sunday morning rides will start up so there will still be rides on.

    The Doc just refilled my prescription of Concrete pills.

    Got a bit heavy in the old pocket... So I downed them in one go.

    Yip. That is how hard I am!!

    I do not have a choice of ride or not to ride. Bike is my only form of transportation.
    Only cos I don't consider Wellingtons Public Transport as transportation.

    More like torture.

    P.S. Doc says you need to get Concrete Pills so you can HTFU.

    Did you really just do that or was it the pron ?
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    I will be keen for a ride on any nice weekend of the year.
    All going well I should be able to attend next weeks final ride before heading off for a ride down the Mainland the next day.
    Guy, cheers for organising these rides, and although it's a shame you're no longer riding, congrats on selling the bike. I hope you miss it.

    See you all on Tuesday (I hope)

    OK, just posted up a proposed ridge run for around 11am this saturday (27th March).

    Anyone interested?

    Posted it on the ridge runners group :

    http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/gr...cussionid=1481

    Seems pretty quiet in that group so I though I'd post it on here as well.

    Anyone up for a ride over the takas this saturday then? Around 11am?

    Can meet at the duckpond if anyone wants to go.

    That begs the question of "what do you do for a living?"
