Wabash Saturday... 11/7/2009

I am taking the cross bike out on the Wabash Saturday, but you can probably do it on the road bike without a problem. Pace should be pretty relaxed (175-200W with no surges over 250W) for me so I can't think anybody will get dropped. If you want to go faster I'll probably Venga, Venga, Venga but I will let you ride me off your wheel and I will not care. Strictly headed out there for base miles as its that time of the year.

Time: 9AM
Place: Council Bluffs Wabash Trailhead
Duration: 3ish hours of riding

I'm likely doing the Pedal-Omaha gravel ride, leaving the downtown Scooters at 8:00 am Saturday

Crappity crap crap. The woman may have me reserved for the afternoon, but I could ride for a while. I may see if she's cool with me not being home till 1pm. Cause if I ride there, do the 3 hrs, then ride home, that should put me in at 1pm.

I shall repost with a yes/no when I find out.

RD said...

you guys should ride gravel loop. it will be good times and some it will be on wabash

Mike Miles said...

RD, what's the pace going to look like?

RD said...

depends on who shows up but 16 mph average i would say faster if you like ...

Mike Miles said...

That's going to be too fast on the gravel for me for this weekend. Sorry.

RD said...

we can slower i just want to go and ride some gravel also if you want if decide to do this you can start at the wabash and go back via 192nd street along i-29... here's the route

RD said...

ps. when u say watts i don't know how to calculate this into speed

Mike Miles said...

175-200 watts = lower end - medium endurance type riding.

RD said...

i got you well we can do that then :D

munsoned said...

Mike, I figure Rafal and friends will show up to the trailhead right about 9am, or shortly thereafter. We could decide then if we all want to take the Gravel roads or the Wabash. My guess is the gravel roads will have hills, though. So going easy may be harder in that sense.

We'll figure it out.

I'll be joining you guys soon. If that is alright with everyone. I will be back in NE by the end of November.

munsoned said...

Hey, hey Matt!! Back as in for good, or just visiting. If you're just visiting, hopefully the weather will hold out so we can keep up the Shabbos rides for you.

Mike Miles said...

Munson, so you are in, is that what I read? Are you riding over?

munsoned said...

Yes, I'm in and riding over, which is why I was thinking of hitching onto Rafal's group. However, if we really want to stick to Wabash only (which I would just slightly prefer) then I could bypass the coffee stop and be at the trailhead by or before 9am.

Jonny said...

I will be at the trailhead just before 9 also. I would also perfer to stay on the trail... See you there.

I'm moving back for good. Moving on the 16th. Fiance took a job so we are moving from MadTown.
