Sunday 14 March West island with Synergy
So I was in Synergy today in Pointe Claire, and Patrick told me he is doing a big west island/off the west end of the island ride on sunday. I am tempted, but I wouldn't want to do something like that without some moral support. Any medium-fast guys or girls want to check that out? This would be a pretty big one i think, but Patrick stressed to me that it will NOT be a hammerfest, just a tempo ride.
Yesh. What time?
not sure yet. if you're interested I'll find out.
i'd be in for this too. I haven't been out there yet this season.
I'm interested too if the weather doesn't suck. Turns out I'm NOT in TO this weekend.
I would be interested. Any idea what the total time would be?
There's no way i'm doing more then 3-4 hours on Sunday, so anyone wanting to ride that distance can bunk with me on the ride home.
i could be in for this as well....depending on time
is it a rain or shine ride?
so many questions.....of which I would like the answers as well!
I might be in if the finals studying goes ok and the weather isn't the suck
Ok, so here is the info I have received from patrick russel via text message:
"I'm planning to ride 2-2.5 hrs. Maybe meet at the shop [synergy] and do a loop of ile perrot and a few laps of john abbott? Weather permitting.... Some time around noon?"
He's not too stoked to ride in a cold spring rain either, so it would have to be at least not really raining.
Who's in? Also, I would not be opposed to taking the train out to point claire if that meant I could ride all the way back into town. Kind of lame, but whatevs. I don't really feel like riding 4 1/2 hrs. (although I could be coerced into it.)
Also, anyone coming on the ride has to be kitted up to the MAX. Nothing but A+ pro mcgill gear. (Nybom, I don't know what we're gonna do about you.)
Can old guys come? I want to ride too.
of course. Patrick himself is not overly young. (and if you are creeping on our forum, patrick, I mean that in the nicest way)
If the sun's out, I'll be all too glad to forsake spinning and come.
I have nothing to do Sunday, so I am down for riding out, doing the ride, and riding back if anyone else is game
sorry ben this looks like a wet cold slog. I'm going to go west island it up tomorrow AM instead...
I'm sticking with the synergy ride unless it is truly awful. in which case I just won't ride.
I'll come unless it's raining Bad. Im really not a fan of getting wet
30% chance of rain as of right now. I'm cool with riding if its only raining 30% of the time.
With rain an so on, i'm going to sit this one out.
I'm with Scott. Spin class for me!
I'll third third Scott's motion.
hey ben,
If the weather is ok, what time should we be at synergy tomorrow?
noon. But I'm going to confirm if this is happening tonight or in the morning. Stay tuned.
jeez, what a bunch of weenies. It's gonna be a game time decision, patrick is gonna call me in the morning to confirm yay or nay. Moir, you want to PM me your phone number?
Yea noon is too late. I will be leaving from the Gates 9 am rain or shine
Yeah I am not going. Too wet and cold for me
i decided not to go as well, and Patrick from synergy too. We'll try and make this happen for real very soon.
Glad I decided to sleep all weekend. A week worth of 5:30 AM wakeups is fucking horrid. FML
