WHAT were they thinking ??? Scheduling a trainer seminar when our Wingbitter occurs? I will not take the bait. I plan on riding a real bike, on real roads.

They make fun of me because they like me. They make fun of me because they like me. They make fun of me because they like me.

I took the bait. Can't pass up the chance to see new tech, gadgets, and cycle at the same time. Might still make the post-ride session too!

I won't ride tonight at Benidorm or from New Hartford. I have to finish preparing a talk I'm giving at Danbury Hospital tomorrow morning. Will there be a ride from New Hartford center at all? Who's planning on riding?

Greg make sure to include some of Bruce's jokes in your speech.

In reply to Brett

Here's an ideeeer, since Greg is not riding we can Rogolski the route, and stop in at Benidorm for a while and then continue on with the route

In reply to Brett

you want him fired?

I don't think I'm riding tonight. I wasn't crazy about the busy roads on the route and if the crazy leader doesn't even show than that's a sign. I'll save my legs for the cx ride tomorrow.

Just to define a few terms: Rogolskiing or Rogowskiing the ride is when you steal another ride leader's friends for your ride, so that he has to either ride alone or join your ride. Porterizing the route is when you modify it beyond recognition, usually on the fly, without the ride leader's knowledge.

P.S. Jim Magennis, if you don't want to ride alone tonight, you should plan on riding on the trainer at Benidorm. Everyone else will be there, apparently ;-)

You sounds like a lawyer. Well, since many of the regulars have ditched the ride, i may too and join the seminar and then do the Saturday morning cross ride that was just posted (I was told that they will have Long Trail at Benidorm tonight)
