Saturday Spin

AstraMonti

Anyone up for a 100k or so tomorrow? 9 at Dundrum?

DirkVoodoo

Hopefully, I'm going to go out later on and see if my lungs still work.

Haven't been on the bike in ages!

DirkVoodoo

Astra, I have this strange urge to head to Howth and do some laps, what do you think?

uberwolf

9 though? otherwise, I'd like something to force me out

actually, prob for the best that it's not late

blorg

I'll be heading out to Wicklow around 10am. None of this nine nonsense.

uberwolf

what sort of distance?

DirkVoodoo

Blorg...distance....no no.

0 km: So where are we going?
Just a over there, it's not far, you can do it.

50 km: How much further?
Just a bit more, you can do it, nearly there.

180km....you get the idea.

uberwolf

as long as I'm scraped off the pavement on the return journey

Mosiki

9am under the luas bridge Astra, see you there. Decide the course as we progress.

The tax man

Might try my best to make it in the morning.

I'll be up Sally Gap way tomorrow. Alas it'll be in the car. I'll wave as ye pass by...

AstraMonti

Wake up, tick.
Eat my cereals, tick.
Get ready, ehm
Be there on time, ehm.
Waste time posting on boards, tick.

Cu there in a while.

The tax man

Waste time replying to above post.....check.

Knees are sore so I'll see how long I last out there. Hopefully a spin will loosen them out.

Fair play to you tax man and dirk for getting the excuses in early. Something astra monti forgot to put on his list.

Had a last minute chance to go up Sally Gap today. Windy:eek:!

AstraMonti

Yeap it was windy up there. Taxman, eggie and myself had a nice spin with a handy pace, really enjoyed it

DirkVoodoo

Sorry I didn't go, my recovery has been slower than I would have liked.

Weather seemed nice for it (wind aside).

AstraMonti

We sat for coffee in the hippy cafe and it was bloody cold! I was shivering! Going up sally gap was good enough though and got the blood circulating again.

Meant to get out at 8am, but kids woke up and I had to do the breakfast thing. Eventually got on the road at 8.55, assumed you lot would be late so headed off on my own. Dundrum, Djouce, Roundwood, Moneystown, Rathdrum, Laragh (Double Espresso and Chocolate Brownie - yum) Glenmacnass, Featherbeds, Mount Venus Road, Dundrum. 102kms, 24kph. I was sure I would bump into you lot along the way. Breezy, Cool - nice spin.

you didn't get caught in that torrential shower then around lunch time? my poor girl friend was with me this avo up in the gap and she was verging on hypothermic after it, ireland in july... all these highs and lows indeed
