Sun RNP?

weiyun · Postby **weiyun** » 04 Oct 2007, 11:37

Is the RNP ride on this Sunday? Anyone doing it? Might be a last chance before daylight saving kicks in again and before the Gong ride.

Yep, I'm in. 6.00am start!

I'll probably give this one a miss (again), I plan on doing Stanwell Top instead.

Yipee for more sunlight. I'll be there. which way are we going in?

weiyun · Postby **weiyun** » 05 Oct 2007, 12:02

I beg Waterfall in, Audley out.

FAswad · Postby **FAswad** » 05 Oct 2007, 12:38

I beg to differ

Only because if I feel good on the day, I'll have the option of going all the way to stanwell tops.

How do you return from Stanwell Tops? Do you still have to go through RNP?

FAswad · Postby **FAswad** » 05 Oct 2007, 14:39

Only if I'm feeling super strong on the day. I have done this several times. But generally, I get on the princes highway at Helensburgh and enjoy the wind in my face on the fast return leg...

I'll make my mind up Sunday morning. IE whatever time I wake up.

I'll have to look into that as if I should go crazy and decide to ride back from the Gong, then I really need to know how to get back.

FAswad · Postby **FAswad** » 06 Oct 2007, 20:00

If you're referring to 4 Nov., I'll be riding back from the Gong. We can piddle back together at a leasurely pace.

We had a record turn out this morning with 11 people doing the RNP ride. Its nice to be reminded what real hills look like.

I can't wait for the next RNP ride.

Congratulations to Peter for completing his first RNP ride

there were a few people for the normal ride too
mat turned up after a 120 km fixie ride yesterday!!

weiyun · Postby **weiyun** » 07 Oct 2007, 17:23

Looking at my ride log, I was surprised it has been 6 months since my last RNP ride. Where have I been?

Adrian, you can always do it every week...

I agree. Excellent turn out and great ride.

T-Bone · Postby **T-Bone** » 07 Oct 2007, 19:43

I slept through my alarm, didn't actually turn it completely off until 6:10am. Was a bit too tired after staying up to watch the rugby last night, but there'll always be other times.

soooooft
i saw the end of the rugby!
and was there for the 6:30 ride too

T-Bone · Postby **T-Bone** » 07 Oct 2007, 20:30

I could have gone to the 6.30 ride, but i decided more sleep before work would be better. I didn't have enough sleep the night before either.

mikesbytes · Postby **mikesbytes** » 07 Oct 2007, 20:37

Could of left at 7 and chased

Yeah, numbers were so good we essentially had a defacto Slowies, Midpacers, and Fasties group today - all in one bunch!

Bludge? we were flyin'!

The 200km return ride down to the Gong in 4 weeks time is starting to worry me. So anyone keen to ride the RNP this Sun, 14 Oct? Might even be willing to try out the loop down to Helensburg.

FAswad · Postby **FAswad** » 12 Oct 2007, 19:34

I was told you climbed like a goat last Sunday. You have nothing to worry about.

In any case, if you are keen on some weekend climbing, I'll be happy to join you. Will never pass up an opportunity to go through the park. In at Audley and out at Helensburgh is fine by me. Let me know the start time.

Goat? Are you kidding? Couldn't even get close to you guys! And I need to practice descents a bit more.

Will aim for 6am start at Mick's. Weather looked to be favourable on Sunday again.

FAswad · Postby **FAswad** » 12 Oct 2007, 19:59

Cool. I might do one of two things. start with you at Mick's, or latch on at Sutherland at the Audley entrance to the RNP. Is that fine by you?

For safety reasons, I would prefer not to ride solo if it can be avoided. Yet again, it doesn't make sense for you to ride 30mins to get to Mick's. So let's see if anyone else is going to participate. We can talk off-line if it's just going to be the two of us.

T-Bone · Postby **T-Bone** » 12 Oct 2007, 22:35

I have work drinks on saturday, for a few peoples birthdays (including me), so i'll be lucky to get out at all.

mikesbytes · Postby **mikesbytes** » 12 Oct 2007, 23:06

If I get my fixie wheel fixed (pun intended), I'll do the normal ride, otherwise I'll come with you.

Are you intending to go into the park at Waterfall and then turn right to Stanwell Tops and loop back past Hellensberg to Waterfall?

BTW, I've ridden up by myself at 6am no problems, car traffic is lighter than for the 6.30am ride and there are a reasonable number of other riders on the road.

weiyun · Postby **weiyun** » 12 Oct 2007, 23:27

No confirmation on the routing. May just do the regular RNP loop also. We can get a consensus on the ride.

weiyun · Postby **weiyun** » 13 Oct 2007, 22:32

Confirmed 6am meet at Mick's.

mikesbytes · Postby **mikesbytes** » 13 Oct 2007, 22:49

Yes, got the message. Fouad + 1 and me so far.
