Good morning. First of all, I want to say how great it was to have so many show up to ride. I believe we had 15 and I sincerely hope that all enjoyed it. I do have a favor to ask so that we can hopefully continue to grow the group and offer people what they are looking for in a group ride. Please shoot me your constructive criticisms, complaints, ideas, things you liked, etc. You can send them directly to me and I will do my best to integrate the ideas. All submissions will be treated as 'anonymous' contributions.July 30 to August 5 rides:
- Monday morning group rides: Start time 5:55AM, meet at the dentist office.
- Afternoon Rides: With the later AM start time, I am too rushed to get to work on time. I am going to start riding in the evenings beginning Tuesday. I will leave from either the Dentist's office (Southern routes) or Harris Teeter (Northern routes) - I will try to post my plans daily. Rides will usually start at 6PM. Weather permitting, I will ride Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings this week.
- Saturday Morning Group Ride: Given the positive response and positive feedback I have received from the participants this past Saturday, I would like to try for another group ride this coming Saturday. Unless feedback indicates otherwise, let's plan to meet at 8 AM at Harris Teeter again. Please RSVP your plans to attend along with your desired mileage. I will put together the routes by Thursday depending on responses.
I do plan to ride Tuesday night. I am thinking of doing a Red Oak route from Harris Teeter. Start at 6PM - 22ish miles.
ReplyDeleteWednesday night.
ReplyDeleteRiding from Harris Teeter at 6PM for 22 mile loop.

Looking for RSVP's for at Saturday Ride. Please indicate if you are interested in a short (20 to 30) or long (45 to 60) mile ride. Anticipated start is 8 AM from Harris Teeter, but I am asking for feedback on the start time - 7 AM would be cooler....
ReplyDeleteThanks.
Eric
Unfortunately, I will not be able to ride Saturday or any other day on the roads for a little while. Well...what can I say?
ReplyDeleteInjured again!
This time I have fractured my left arm because I had a fall during the ride last Saturday. I came down on my left palm and the impact caused a oblique fracture near my elbow joint. I'm restricted to riding stationery for at least three weeks. It will take 6 weeks to heal (hopefully no longer than that). This really stinks but it could have been worse. I'll be back on the roads as soon as I can.
So sorry to hear about the injury Ursula. I have some traing DVD's if you would like to use them instead of just spinning. Let me know.
ReplyDeleteThursday Night Ride : 6 PM at Belton and Schrimper - 20 to 30 miles depending on time and weather. We will ride to the south of Rocky Mount.
ReplyDeleteGood morning.
ReplyDeleteTonight (Thursday) I am thinking of a 24 mile course starting at Belton and Schrimper at 6PM. http://www.mapmyride.com/ride/united-states/nc/rocky-mount/671795996
Please let me know if you plan to meet us.
Saturday group ride. I have had a couple of people ask if Sunday would work better than Saturday for the big group ride. So, please weigh in and let me know your thoughts on Sunday morning or Saturday morning. Also, please give an opinion on a start time.
I am probably going to miss the ride tonight due to a late truck. I have heard that there will be at least 4 others riding though. If I am not there by 6:05, leave without me and have a good, safe ride.
ReplyDeleteI realize that there is a long run this Saturday for those of you in marathon training and there are some participating in the Goldsboro Triathlon. For anyone who wishes to ride, please let me know you will attend and we will see you at 8 AM at Harris Teeter. Please let me know if you are interested in the shorter or longer ride. Thanks. Eric
