    Phoenix Park - Rathfarnham - View Point - Glencree - Enniskerry(Coffee Stop) - Stepaside - Dundrum - Phoenix Park.

    There will be no dilly-dallying but the pace won't be lightning either. Regroupage will occur at the top of each climb. The plan is to get home feeling like I could do it again on Sunday.

    Starts 9am.

    Stop being pansies and come out for a cycle.

    Well i'm usually on my own so there is no specific point!

    I pass by this gate (green arrow) or I can meet at the pope's cross or Island Bridge if you need a landmark.

    Can stop at the Yellow house if anyone wants to join at Rathfarnham.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,172 ✭✭✭wanderer 22


    Yellow house would be good for me-say 9:20?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,604 ✭✭✭petethedrummer

    Roughly what time wud u be aiming to brought back in the park?? Will have to include that on the permission slip


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,604 ✭✭✭petethedrummer


    Last time this spin took me 3 hours to the minute including the coffee stop. So you'd be back at 12.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,059 ✭✭✭victorcarrera


    I hope to make this if 09:00 at chapelizod gate or 09:30 at yellow house. Otherwise I will catch up at coffee stop. Where is cafe in Enniskerry?

    Kennedy's, but that's the homeward leg. PM me your number in the morning. or check here. if the rain is torrential I'm not going out. <---pansy talk.

    Cheers lads, enjoyed that. we got a great morning for it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,383 ✭✭✭Kaisr Sose


    Would be interested in doing this if its a regular thing. Pace wise is an average solo speed of 27/28kmph fast enough to stay in the convoy?

    You'd be fine with the pace you have. Its not totally regular. I just sometimes post the day before I head out for a cycle. usually noone turns up. Today we had a peloton of 4! You could start your own thread if you don't see one here. Don't get disheartened if noone shows up.

    Good spin today. Good weather. Good company. Lovely muffin in Kennedy's.

    Good to go out with a group for change. Great day, thanks Pete!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,059 ✭✭✭victorcarrera


    Thanks and well done to all, especially Pete for organising. The Dublin and Wicklow mountains were looking fantastic today. So mild we sat outside at the cafe. It must have been about 15 deg C. Lots of other interesting routes up there too. So between this and the NCD spin there should be something on every weekend.
    @Kaisr Sose: No worries. We regroup at summits and next junction.
