Will be finishing by doing some rides that will&nbsp;<span style="background-color: white;">mirror</span> those of the ride&nbsp;with same start time - 6 or 7 am. I think everything is ready to go - just have to get food that I will be eating during most of ride - hammer bars and gel - easier to digest while riding.&nbsp;Panier bags have to be checked as well. Final tuneup was completed this week so there are no apparent mechanical problems - but $#!+ happens. All for now...</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Peace</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5090098747835703702-7146458830862519916?l=rideforrespite.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Bricyclerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01710843061253284541noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090098747835703702.post-64278141645294326452010-06-20T23:28:00.001-04:002010-06-20T23:31:00.521-04:00<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, no Barrie trips this weekend but rode 57 km on Saturday and 34 km on Sunday. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial;">Note: The route I use In Newmarket is from my home to Leslie Street via Srigley Street&nbsp;(6 km) then to St. John Sideroad/Yonge Street via Tom Taylor trail (6.8 km) then to&nbsp;Yonge Street via Eagle Street (6 km). Repeat as necessary.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial;">Possible Tom Taylor trail suggestions: Some sort of a guide for walkers/runners/cyclists as to trail etiquette - then everyone is on the same page&nbsp;- people don't know&nbsp;when bicycles are approaching from behind and get angry/scared if verbal warnings aren't given in advance. </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Although even when warnings are given sometimes people look at you like what are you doing on the trail.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial;">The former idea of bikes on one side and walkers on the other was a bad idea - they should just paint arrows on either side of the trail to indicate direction which is more logical.&nbsp;</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial;">The town really does&nbsp;need some signage on the trail as well to indicate distances and directions for users - other trails do this and it really helps if you are not familiar with the trail. Just today some cyclists asked me which way to Newmarket (we were on the trail behind Armitage PS).</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial;">Peace</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5090098747835703702-6427814164529432645?l=rideforrespite.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Bricyclerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01710843061253284541noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090098747835703702.post-44778169030959518212010-06-18T23:17:00.001-04:002010-06-18T23:17:14.860-04:00Final phase - consecutive Barrie trips...Brian <p><br>Sent from my Acer Android device on the Rogers Wireless Network<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5090098747835703702-4477816903095951821?l=rideforrespite.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Bricyclerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01710843061253284541noreply@blogger.com0
