Post by: xrayspecs on October 25, 2015, 01:24:24 PM: Myself Haydn, Jason, Steve (formerly toe strap, now track stand ), Dave , Paul, and new member Mark. Changed the planned route back to Bwlch and Rhigos with the option for more hills after (which no one took). Some nice through and off on the flatter bits. Chatty motorists in Aberdare.

Post by: Jason T on October 25, 2015, 01:34:13 PM: Good ride and banter today chaps ;D ....still holding on to the dry weather so far.
Title: Re: Pacers Run Sunday 25th October
Post by: Paul Nicholas on October 25, 2015, 02:04:25 PM: Good ride today. Finding these organised rides to be more enjoyable, I think we're faster on the road and feeling fresher after the ride too.
Title: Re: Pacers Run Sunday 25th October
Post by: Jason T on October 25, 2015, 02:09:04 PM: For sure, as you said at the start, if we can keep these going over the winter with some good discipline every few weeks then it should make all the difference come spring time.

Title: Re: Pacers Run Sunday 25th October
Post by: Dave W on October 25, 2015, 02:38:14 PM: :o yep was more organised, could have done with a tow up the Rhigos,

Post by: Toestrapsteve on October 25, 2015, 03:01:52 PM: The toe-straps have a causative relationship with the track-stand, Chris - wish I could hold Paul Nicolas' wheel up the Rhigos as long as the track stand though!
