    i REALLY like that image ... wonder if I can get a shirt of that?

    I'm generally going to my church on sunday evenings now so that free's me up for either day. Its sorta dictated by whether the g/f is working or available or whatever though so I generally take what I can get either day. I like to spend saturday cleaning/tweaking though (it gets ridden to work each day too) but then if i do it on sunday after a ride I have a freshly cleaned bike for work...

    hmmm... decisions....

    I'd have to say Saturday is the best day, as my wife works this day!
    (she hasn't got a bike, or any gear - yet)

    I'm waiting for the "4 working day/3 day weekend" week to arrive...that way one could have 3 days to choose from on which to go gallivanting around the countryside on a bike! Maybe that would get more of you into church on Sundays?

    Zed, in my teachings, the Seventh Day is Saturday.

    By the way, the House of our Lord is open 24/7.

    Sunday's because the chores are done (mostly) on Saturday, and a good ride helps blot the impending doom of the imminent return to work.

    Though if we spend a weekend at the In-Laws in the Wairarapa I ride out Friday night and come back Monday morning.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Any day on two wheels, is a good day to ride, even if it's just for a blat down the north western and then back through the burbs.

    Just trying to fit it in around my gf :spudbooge , the recovering from the night before , and the running repairs

    Well my current situation leads me to be a weekday afternoon rider. Both my sons are at preschool all day (7:30-4:30), but I finish my course by 12:30 each day. Supposed to be doing 3+ hours study in my own time. But instead I usually race home do a bit of house work, have a bite of lunch and then go for a small blat on the Rodent.

    Saturday work Sunday church. So I fit the rides in between them both. So I do ride both days most weekends.

    any day is a good day for a bike ride
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    Any fine day where you either have a) spare time or b) can skive off without being caught and its not raining is all good. Then again I have to admit that I have gone riding in wind so strong I was leant right over ie 40 degress plus just to stay riding in a straight line . I like saturdays more as I have usually been looking forward to a ride all week and thus are very keen come saturday.
