How tall are you? You could ride my second bike (the blue one), but its a tall frame so I don't think someone under 6 foot could ride it. I live close to st. george station so it wouldn't be hard to get it over there.

Operator, Kingkelly, shiznaz, Skyelo, and Msmitten and scooby Snax, lets ride on November 14, on my day off if snow is not yet with us, after the ride you can take a dip in my indoor swimming pool, (oh well the apartment where I live) and sauna

You're welcome to ride with us anytime you feel up to it...!

Nov 14th sounds great Orguasch. It'll be great if we get even more bikeforum members to go on a ride...!

I did the double last Sunday and I suffered, no the "donut Run" is too taxing for an old guy like me, will just ride the small Bikeforums member ride on Sunday, but on Saturday I will do the "donut run" just half of it like all the way to "Grand Ma's Bake shop" on Yonge and King Road, up North, then I will head home.

Oscar, how far is half?

I like the idea of a half, so is that about 60K?

And I like the idea of Riding down Yonge from King... Once you crest the hill at Bloomington, its a decent downhill until practically Centre St. In Thornhill!! I'm all about the downhills!

yes, about 60 K, from Laird and eglinton all the way to GrandMa's Bake Shop is about 40 K and if your going back via Leslie Street going back to my house would be about 90 K, and I will be able do the ride until 1 P.m.
