I have an ultimate ride.
Head out thu New Maryland to the Junction and back in to Geary and Oromocto. Butt, in Oro. we go across the Burton Bridge and back to town via the Northside. But wait, we go around the Mrrysville bypass and at the old Cotton Mill head out to Penniac Durham bridge to Taymouth and head to Stanley. We could stop and have Breakfast. As we head back to town we turn down to Burtts Corner. Once there we turn to go around so we can climb the Wall. Heading back across the Ridge after crossing the Dam, we head and do the beloved Maz to Hanwell Rd and back into town with a detour from the Hanwell overpass to the New Maryland overpass and return in the NewMaryland Hwy around the mall out Bishop drive Hanwell turning at Prospect down to the turn by Tim's and in the Woodstock Rd to the SS Center where we started
Lazlo, I know yor up for it. Perhaps we can Map My Ride to find out the distance.
Thank you Cookie! We had a great time, what an awesome event. Met some pro's, bargained with God on the run, and learned alot of what to do/not to do for the next one.
If the roads are dry I will be out tonight but I am heading for the Edge to get new wheels now ie 4pm from work so I hope to be there on time. If I ain't drive by the edge to get me.
By the way, River road is tore up, much of Penniac ride and Durham bridge ride are chip sealed and Mt. Hope has construction going across for the bypass extension
Rat - I think Greg and I are in for Thursday...later in the morning would be best, even noon? How about Holyoke, Burtt's Corner?
Also, not to impact the posted Wed ride but I have a Harvest meeting on Wed night ..so Greg and I are riding 2 until 4 tomorrow if anyone can't make the posted ride and is interested (Zorro?), let me know.. p.s. I'm kinda glad I'm going to miss the Kingsley...visions of Rat-inflicted angony still dance in my head. Jazz
Did the "Reverse Mazerolle" just now ...windy and humid but a great ride. 58km with some good scenery, and lotsa climbing. And coming down Carriage Hill is a hoot with the new asphalt at the bottom. We should add that one into our "routing" more often.
Wow 2 great rides this week. and more to come... Monday was reasonable and Wednesday was reasonable "fast" Cool when that paceline if flowing so good. thanks
Thelonius Rat - having some unexpected mechanical difficulties..need to address today/tomorrow to be ready for Sat. So, can't ride this morning. Sorry! But put aside Tuesday, Sept 15th for our second annual Harvest ride.
Hey guys, I'm in for the morning. Will leave home at 0730 and ride in to meet you at the SS centre. I plan ot ride tomorrow night as the weather is not looking good for Sat, cold windy and rain. May not be great for biking but always great fro BBQ ribs, beers, and friends.
canterbury? cool, i rode down there from woodstock last night.. was late getting back to the hotel, so the 104kms put me in the dark for the last 20 mins. good thing there is only 1 car every 10 minutes. i went south 165, west 122 then north 540 along the border. not too much going on out that way

Fabulous Ride-n-Ribs. Great ride (for those of us who are tough enough, and those who aren't...not to mention any names Rat and Jazz ) and fantastic social aferward. Thanks to Turbo and Darlene for another wonderful OSB event. You are both truly OSB! And...who loves Mitch???
(I was going to post this last night when I got home last night, but was afraid that it might look a little odd out of context. Now I'm ready to shout it from the rooftops)
Rob and I just wanted to say thank you to Darlene and Turbo for hosting such a wonderful event. You know you had a great time when you find yourself laughing all the way home at comments that were made and things people said or did.
Thanks very much for the great ribs! Never ate so many delicious ribs before. They were awesome. Thanks again to Darlene and Turbo for all your hospitality.
Thanks to Turbo and Darlene, Once again, fabulous, unbelievable ribs. I loved the deck show best. Senora Zorro - declaring your love openly is (almost) always a good thing - last night it definitely was! Let's do that ride we planned sometime soon.
Bubbles, I do appreciate you being ever respectful of the OSB sisterhood and only singling out Rat and Jazz in the 'those that didn't ride' camp ;-)
However, while my legs and cardio didn't get the benefit of a 70km rain ride yesterday, last night my belly got the best workout in months! Belly laughs and a a belly full of food....nothing better. Well except maybe a 70km ride prior...
Darlene & Turbo - your hospitality is unequalled and ribs divine. A huge thank you from me and my belly :-)
p.s. and of course, I too, love Mitch..... frankly, I always have, even before it became 'popular'.
Darlene & Leroy thanx for the unforgettable party and the great food.I do not remember having such fun with so many roadies, off the bike ever! Mitch I love you too.(except your rear wheel :o) Marlene I owe you a breakfast. Pebbles you owe me a rocket!
Attempted to lessen the shame of not riding yesterday by riding up to Crabbe today. A very rare day with no head wind and no scorching heat. (Strange. I had tender feelings about Mitch the entire ride.) Now I feel much better than I did at 8am this morning! But the shame still remains.

I see week of Rat in the very near future :-)Stay tuned
Rat; Get some help.
McLeod.
Hey Che,
Yeah a bit extreme but would be interesting to see it mapped out.
I have to admit though a part of me would like to try it.
It would be a challange. Also a safe passage to 2 SouthEast@DECH :o)
Here it is. Click me. I put if from your doorstep and back Rat.
No Doubt,
I guess it is a little long, 142 miles and all those hills. Probably best to do it in stages.
Congratulations to Marlene and Allyson on amazing finishes in the Timberman 1/2 Ironman. Marlene finished in 6:03 and Ally in 6:16. Awesome!
Thank you Cookie!
We had a great time, what an awesome event. Met some pro's, bargained with God on the run, and learned alot of what to do/not to do for the next one.
Way to go Marlene and Herc(Ally)!
I cannot even begin to imagine the pain and the pleasure You have experienced!
If the roads are dry I will be out tonight but I am heading for the Edge to get new wheels now ie 4pm from work so I hope to be there on time. If I ain't drive by the edge to get me.

n light of the DOT penniac report. We may have a game time decision on the route. Monday is reasonable night
Way to go Marlene and Ally. You are both amazing.

Jazz
Jazz et al,
Sounds good to me. I work at 4pm but we will be back before the if we leave by noon. I can always cut it short if need be.
Post depature time and place.
I think I recall the same Rat-inflicted agony that Jazz is referring to on the Kingsley Road.
Those are... Double Pack, Baby Back, Racks!
I'm on some tight time lines for thursday and friday. Hopefully our schedules can align.
Did the "Reverse Mazerolle" just now ...windy and humid but a great ride. 58km with some good scenery, and lotsa climbing. And coming down Carriage Hill is a hoot with the new asphalt at the bottom. We should add that one into our "routing" more often.
Great Wed. Ride Turbo,rat,cyclesquash, Big"D", and Zorro. Rat thanks for the pulls on the kingsely road into a head wind.
