Hi Joe, I will join the Yellow spin this Sunday. I have been unable to access the Orwell Wheelers section of Ride with GPS. Someone on a spin directed me to you to see if I need to be registered first. My membership no is 22964LaMcMa2017. Let me know if there is anything I need to do. I have Ride with GPS account set up. Regards, Laurence

Red Spin will start in the Phoenix Park at 9am. Cold morning forecast so figured we'd keep out of the hills.

Sunday expected to be cloudy, misty and 6C
Yellow and White have leaders for groups of 8
(big enough in the current environment)
Late signups may be dependent on additional leaders turning up
(Please do not expect those who have lead multiple times this year to do so again).
Red group departs at 09:00 from Phoenix Park
Orange group departs at 09:10 from Dundru
Yellow groups depart at 09:20 from Dundrum
Thanks to Stephen Kearney for volunteering to lead.
Im suggesting Paul Kelly leads the 2nd group (and I'll take him off his rostered slot in Feb)
White group departs at 09:30 from Dundrum
Peter Mcgrath will lead this group

Sunday temperature likely to be character building.
Orange route is a flat 80km - Lucan, Maynooth, Straffan, Kill, Rathcoole
Yellow and White have a short 64km to encourage New Year Resolutioners.
Out to Lucan, around Westmanstown, and back to Lucan for coffee at 33km.
(several coffee shops so should be easy to maintain social distance).
Home by Newcastle and Rathcoole.
(If the weather is bad this route is easily shortened to 55km by cutting out the Westmanstown loop - and stopping for coffee at Avoca Rathcoole)
Denis Gleeson & Bryan Johnston are rostered Yellow Leaders.
Kathryn Keogh is pencilled in to lead White.
RSVP on RWGPS to give us an idea of numbers.

Sunday is looking a bit better. 5 to 8C, cloudy but dry.
The suggested routes should be OK - but leaders can adjust if necessary based on conditions in the morning.
There is a large signup for yellow - so it is likely that 2 more people will have to step up as leaders.
White has enough leaders this week.
12 Orange
33 Yellow - probably 4 groups
Thanks to Dennis and Bryan who have volunteered to lead
There are enough experienced riders signed up to provide additional leaders
16 White - 2 or 3 groups depending on how many show up.
Thanks to Kathryn, Peter and Niall who have volunteered to lead.

Orange route is a 88km - Embankment, Brittas, Lacken, Valleymount, Blessington
Yellow and White have a lumpy 80km - Embankment, Saggart, Kilteel, BallymoreEustace, Russborugh House, Blessington, Manor Kilbride, Butter Mountain, Balinascorney.
This route can be easily shortened by turning left after Rathmore NS and going straight to Blessington.

Hi Joe I think it would be very helpful to always provide direct link to ridewithgps route. I'm never 100% sure which route is which and need to figure out each link. Simple linking would make it much easierOrange route is a 88km - Embankment, Brittas, Lacken, Valleymount, Blessington
