Hi everybody,

I'd like to start planning a ride for Saturday, May 16th, that would bring together all of the Revscene Riders specifically.

Early considerations :

-plan five weeks in advance to ensure that those wishing to attend have the time necessary to "make it happen"

-I would personally prefer to keep this ride on the North side of the border ... a downed rider or a mechanical issue is far more complicated when we are in the US (and trust me I know there are some amazing rides down there)

-pace will be respectful of both the speed limits and the fact that we will have some newer riders rolling with us - if you want a 150km/h pace
perhaps this isn't the ride for you. I want to make sure the newer riders can have fun without being intimidated to ride beyond their skills.

-630am start to beat traffic out of the city

-I'm open to suggestions on the ride itself ... but to make it appealing it should be probably be a day trip. A number of folks have suggested the Duffy Lake Loop ... but at 8 - 10 hours perhaps that's unappealing to some.
Pemberton? Manning Park? The other possibility is that we keep this one short and graduate to longer rides throughout the season.

Let me know your thoughts everybody!
