Moderate Ride - Sunday, Jan 22 (CHANGED TO SUNDAY)
FWMR Club Ride
Meetup: Sonic on Clifford St. in White Settlement
Kick stands up: 9:00am
Get there early if you want food or coffee.
Ride Leader: dufremle
This will be a Moderate pace ride. Moderates are great for riders who want a slightly faster pace than beginners but still slow enough to be relaxed and comfortable on any sized bike, with a passenger, or learning to ride with the group. The pace for a moderate ride is at or near posted speed limits. On a Moderate ride the ride leader tries to keep a closer eye on the group and adjust the speeds appropriately.
Please be dressed appropriately: helmet, jacket, gloves, over the ankle shoes and long pants.
Sorry for the short notice. The weather is looking decent for Saturday morning, but check this post before you leave just in case the weather turns bad. I do not have a route yet.

Maybe they WANT a woman's touch....
I am talking about the research I have to do. It is time dependent.

Re: Moderate Ride - Saturday, Jan 21
Looking like there isn't much interest in a ride tomorrow, and a couple of people said they were free on Sunday, so I think I will change it to Sunday. Any objections?

Changed my tires and bought new boots, so I should be ready to go for tomorrow.
No, Dad. You may not sell my bike nor may you turn it into your track bike.

It was this morning at 9 am. We didn't get too far before we ended the ride. It was too cold and windy, not having much fun. Maybe try again next weekend.

Cold and sunny I can do. Cold, cloudy and windy, no. I need to see if I have plans this weekend. Sunday looks like it might be the better day to ride.

Re: Moderate Ride - Sunday, Jan 22 (CHANGED TO SUNDAY)
yea the temps wasn't the real issue, that damn wind combined with those temps was nuts. doesn't matter how well the wind screen works when you have 50 mph wind gusts hitting you from the sides

Looks like it will be in the 30s around 9 AM on Saturday, and in the 40s at 9 AM on Sunday. Screw that. If it was going to warm up close to 70 in the afternoon then maybe, but not if it's staying in the 50s.
