Don't see a spin up so I said I'll post one but if someone more experienced in leading spins wants to take the lead feel free I won't be offended!
Planning something similar to the usual Wed spin not 100% on the route but will be two hours around 3 rock and maybe over to Tibadden but open to suggestions of course! Will post a route Tomorrow!
All welcome! Post of you are coming because if I'm on my own Ill be going earlier!
Good stuff Chris, I'll be there hopefully. 6.30 for 2 hrs is 8.30 finish, maybe you were right what you said on Sunday about not needing lights! Woohoo, I think i'll risk it and leave the lights at home this week :-)
Iomair
Deadly! oh and I think you'll find that Wednesdays spin is now more of a combined democratic effort and is no longer a Dictator led suffer fest!!! I am starting to worry about Gary though, I think he's picking up some unreasonable tendencies from working in that shop ;-)
Ah Gary you were a bit slow off the mark I taught that you were under the thumb!haha!! But hey great to hear your not! To celebrate you and your wagon wheels can lead the spin if you wish??
Sure well said Iomair who cares who leads or where we go!! it's all about having the craic!
hold on there ..this has gone too far. You can lead the spin provided you are on a Two Niner like the rest of the EPIC spin leaders..we'll have no leaders on Vintage bicycles please !
Haha !! Goodstuff Chris fareplay for stepping up ,looking forward to the change of route and i hear youve been training with the SAS at high altitude so the pace should be Saavage !! Wagon Wheels ...Love it !!
We'll all be back on penny farthings soon enough the way these wheel sizes keep increasing! 29er's will be like drain pipe trousers and ty dye t-shirts, a fashion fad! In the meantime I'm gonna stick with my 26er and laugh at you all when you revert to what you know is best see you all later, big wheels and small...
Now now dont be sore just because all yous lads got stuck with the last of the penny racer wheels !! Do yourselves a favour , bubble-wrap the penny racers stick them in the attic and in 40 yrs time take them down and let the grandkids have a good aul laugh about the state of the yokes Granny & Grandad used to go around on ..Because at that stage they will be smashing whats left of Ticknock to bits on 48ers , 10 revolutions of the wheel and they would have cleared Metro lower with ease .. Its just the way it is ...They already developing 36er machines ...... So that should be fun ..... See u all laters for the weekly witch-hunt.. Im bringing lights incase we end spending time in the trees to avoid the rain ...
Great spin tonight! Five in total Erica, Gary, Ronan, Iomair and myself. Left lambs up by the blue light onto the old mad course headed over past the top of the dream track the head over to toms serious burn up toms by all! From there no hanging about on to metro along the fire road cut off just before the gate onto the king of three rock trails that links up with the end of the ewok down the fire road out the gate! When Gary got the idea to go up by the stonemasons again and down the dreamt rack so I decided to join him, the rest split as darkness was setting in! Great rip and no hanging around! Threerock is riding great at the moment! Fair play to all you were flying!! See ya in mayo at the weekend!!
Yeah another great wednesday night spin Chris done a cracking job of picking a route that had great flow to it!! I felt rough for the first bit of the spin and i was sloppy and all over the place. Up Toms was savage... And the last minute decision to burst up Stonemasons was well worth it with a great run down Dream with Chris Terrorising 2 boyos on Big Rigs, they quickly pulled aside and let the man through ....everybody is going very well .. Thanks Again !
