Does anyone fancy setting up a regular evening ride group. If anyone is interested: What is a good night for people? Where is a good starting point? What's a good time? We only have eight weeks of summer left so we need to make the most of it. Not that we've had much bloody summer so far. _________________ Life's too short. Then you die

I would be happy starting around the 5p.m. mark. The above is just suggestion, though I like Harry's idea and maybe it's something we could definetely build on next year, so put it down on your New Resolutions Lists you guy's _________________ Big wheels keep on turning, Carry me home to see my kin..............

Gives me a 15 mile warm-up before we start and a 15-mile cool down _________________ Life's too short. Then you die
