Friday Afternoon Beginner/Recovery ride - 5:00

Rides
1

Hi everybody! This will be the first of my weekly beginner oriented rides. For this week we’ll keep it simple, hitting up the Estacade, F1 and perhaps the Lachine bike paths. Emphasis will be on pack riding skills, like proper drafting, pacelineing, and cornering; but we’ll also throw in some intervals to get everybody’s blood moving. Future weeks will include more interesting rides. Experienced riders welcome as well.

As usual we’ll meet at the Roddick Gates on Sherbrooke, and we should be done shortly after 6:00PM.

EDIT : Changed to 5:00PM

I forget what time i get out of class, but ill probably be down. Lachine path? Or maybe too busy at that time of day

3

I was thinking it might be too busy, possibly on way back from estacade though.

4

I would love to do this but I finish class at 4:25. Can the ride start at 5 instead’?

5

Yeah I finish at 4:30 too

Cool, ride time changed to 5PM

Is this ride still on if it’s raining?

Nope, cancelled if raining, but it looks pretty good right now.

Tip for the new cyclists.
If you rode and got wet shoes, stuff them with newspaper for a few hours. Otherwise, you’ll hate try-outs tomorrow morning.
