Someone once said: One man's meat is another man's flaccidity. But it wasn’t anybody in our club who said it.
However, the significance of this idiomatic proverb extends to the cycling calendar, with certain events appealing to different club members. Some like it hilly and hot while others’ loins are engorged with blood at the thought of more horizontal riding.
To accommodate individual goals within the club riding programme, as well as certain members’ bourgeois tendencies, the club has introduced an early week ride departure time – 5:45 a.m. – for members who wish to ride in a more leisurely bunch.
Should any of these riders muster a second wind – not the John McG kind – then they can latch on to the faster moving 5:50 a.m. bunch as it goes by.
Monday, as always, is a slow day. So the staggered depart applies only to Wednesdays and Fridays.
