Wed "C" ride moves to Thursday, 9/5

Well, If it is Wed. it must be raining! So we don't ride on Wed night, but there is nothing that says we can't ride on Thursday and have our pizza after the ride. I propose a relatively short ride starting at 5:30 from our usual spot. Bring lights! It won't be dark when we finish, but the evening 1/2 light can be a problem for drivers. I hope Bruce, Doug, and Chuck can lead their continents, or we all go together at a slower pace. Let's see how many would like to join us.

Great idea for a rain date, though I'd even support rides both evenings. I'll check for Bruce's advice for this Wed. as well, and I'm happy to provide a 5:45 start with shorter (distance) and slightly faster (pace) if folks are interested.

Forecast for today is bad. There is a cold front moving through this afternoon, so if not raining, roads will be wet. I think we should make the switch and ride tomorrow. Pizza afterwards !!

That works for me. Thanks!

Don will head out this eve at 5:30, the other group with Chuck at 5:45. All meet back and have some pizza to celebrate the riding season!

As Don says, bring lights, will be getting darker even with shorter rides.

Just to be clear, we are riding out of Simsbury tonight instead of New Hartford. Is this right?

Sort of. This is the EBCC Wednesday night C ride moved to Thursday. So yes, it is out of Simsbury. There is a EBCC Dumpster Ride out of New Hartford also for 6 pm tonight. They are of different classification, the New Harford ride is a higher pace ( a B ride). Out of Simsbury Don is leading the more relaxed pace ride at 5:30, Chuck is leading a more speedy ride at 5:45.

The STD "C" riders are leaving @ 5:30. The FTD "C" riders leave @ 5:45. I have no idea what anyone else is doing ! Check with your ride leader. You are welcome to join us and have pizza afterwards if you'd like. Heck, We should have all the C & B riders join us since we use the pizza shop's parking lot.

Thank you for clarifying.
