TCLTR - Wellington NOW WITH POLL

[sels1]

A great idea, but IMHO riding around Wgtn stuck in traffic doesn't sound like much fun.

FTR, I'm going to start a similar thing for us "Coasties" soon - lunch time rides departing from Paraparaumu.

Sounds good to me

I don't wanna be doin any riding outside Wasp's work. That's the one place I go to great lengths not to end up at after a ride

Not into a lunchtime ride myself. Would mean getting out of suit gear into bike gear, or riding in suit gear. As I have no self-control, it's unlikely I would be able to hang with cruisy riders in traffic for any length of time, and riding in suit pants and shoes is asking for pain and suffering if you meet traffic behaving like traffic so often does - particularly with the thin margins for error my lack of self-control leaves me.

But when maturity finally arrives (so people tell me it will eventually) I'm keen. I'm flexible with days.

Or I could just look at this as a learning experience. But I'm far too perfect to learn stuff at my age.

I could make it some weeks. Tuesdays would be fine, but as others said, You'd probably spend most of the time stuck in traffic

Damn, everyone knows where i work now... and i nearly had them all turning up too and you went and spoiled it! (not that i remember telling you where i work or that i want to see some people possibly lose their bikes)

Still a no go for me except mabye on days that i take off.

The main reason i see it not working is:

10 mins to get to a place
10 mins to get back
20 mins to socialise/stuff our faces

that means that 5 mins for a 45 min break or 20 mins for an hour break are left for riding!

not to mention if someone has any problems while on the ride they will be late back and cause others to be as well cos theres no way you could just abandon them!
