I am going to check the Friday weather forecast again tomorrow morning to see if FRIDAY will be OK for a ride. It could be OK, but cold. If the roads are not wet, the sun is out and the wind is light it may be OK for a ride. So, if you would like to get out for a ride on Friday, check this blog again tomorrow.
There is an eerie consistency to this ThursdayBike weather. Eventually, this weather pattern will change, and it is likely we will have a November full of perfect sunny Thursdays!!! (we had this 2 years ago!).
The last Bluebird ThursdayBike day was August 18th (The Basin). Thursday August 25th had 6 riders, and it started to rain about a half hour AFTER we finished the ride.
Then there was Tropical Storm Irene with the road closures, but we put together a great ride on Sept 1st with the The Bear Notch Loop (6 riders).
August 8th was not great weather I am not sure if anyone showed up!
The next 3 ThursdayBike rides were cancelled due to rain.
On October 6th, 6 riders did the Whitefield ride - cold and windy to start but a nice day eventually.
October 13th was cancelled, the 20th was cancelled (but FridayBike was a success for 6 riders!).
So, for 10 weeks, we had 6 cancellations, one beautiful day and 3 marginal days and one FridayBike.
Well, I hope we get to ride a few more times before the end of the ThursdayBike season! See you perhaps on Friday or for the Saturday Velo Club Ride!
In the mean time, I might just take the storage wax off the rock skis.....
