No worries Dave, good to meet you in May, see you in Tewkesbury.DaveCly wrote:I have to miss out on this one as well, but looking forward to the Tewksbury meet.
Agreed although it would be an advantage to know in advance those who may wish to take part. Would allow for better route planning to accommodate all interested parties and everyone attending would know what to expect.David. wrote: Perhaps the way forward is to agree a start time at Wetherby, see who turns up & what time they would like to be home.
This may determine which routes are ridden, there's certainly plenty of choices.
Weather permitting, I'll be there, what time start (depart from Wetherby) were you thinking of.k9doc wrote:Agreed although it would be an advantage to know in advance those who may wish to take part.
If it transpires that we're attempting the longer ride, then I think we should be away from Wetherby by 1030, a little later possibly for one of the shorter rides. We can finalise with a week to go when hopefully all wishing to participate have indicated their interest. Hope this is acceptable.David. wrote: Weather permitting, I'll be there, what time start (at Wetherby) were you thinking of.
Another way of looking at it is, where are folks travelling from to get to Wetherby & how long will it take them to get there, plus a comfort break at Morrisons.k9doc wrote:If it transpires that we're attempting the longer ride, then I think we should be away from Wetherby by 10:30.
Understood, that's why we can make a considered decision when we know who is intending to participate and could possibly choose the next meeting at a location more to their advantage.David. wrote: Another way of looking at it is, where are folks travelling from to get to Wetherby & how long will it take them to get there.
Last time out, one interested member who unfortunately didn't make it, was 2 hours from the start location.
Spot on, if folks declare an interest, a mutually convenient start location can be agreed.k9doc wrote:Could possibly choose the next meeting at a location more to their advantage.
Spot on, exactly the same as me. Do you have an opinion or preference on the route? All comments welcome.scunny1 wrote: I declare an interest, just over 60 miles to start point for me.

One route takes me 12 miles from home then zooms 50 miles in the opposite direction :))k9doc wrote: Spot on, exactly the same as me. Do you have an opinion or preference on the route? All comments welcome.
Similar thing happened to me last week by about 20 miles but had a really good day.scunny1 wrote: One route takes me 12 miles from home then zooms 50 miles in the opposite direction)
To help with the decision making & planning, which option/route goes nearest to your home.scunny1 wrote:One route takes me 12 miles from home.
