Rodalben Sunday

Alright y'all, let's get a good showing for a Rodalben ride before the weather gets crummy for the fall.. oh yeah nevermind 'bout the weather...

Let's get a good group ride going.

Full Loop, early, but not 'torture early'

0700 Gravel lot, start the B-side--Keep a steady pace (14-18kph very limited breaks) to complete the B-side in roughly two hours
0900 Meet up with the late risers at Lidl and do the A-side at a sociable/no-drop pace

Any takers?

Thinking about it.

If it is dry I should be in for half of it.

Sounds good.

I want to join...unless there is a torrential downpour. Sorry to be the FNG, but where is the gravel lot in Rodalben? I will be driving from Vogelweh housing area.

Thanks!

If there is a downpour, then you MUST ride. That is a requirement.

The gravel lot is the dividing line between the A-side and the B-side, with the path tunnel under the road, right?

...and as usual, any carpoolers? *edit* TDYguy, obvious choice... If you want to meet in Landstuhl, I can drive us.

I could give you a ride down on Sunday since I go right by there, or you could follow.

I will follow in case something happens and I give up at the half way point. I am staying in building 1034 on vogelweh, what time should I be ready to go? My cell is +39-335-570-0684 incase something comes up. Can you send me a txt or respond with your number...in case I stay out too late on sat night and can't get out of bed!

Okay, so who's in for what time?

That way, we know for whom we should wait at the two meeting times and points.

John, I'd love to catch a ride with you, if you're planning on doing the 7:00 start. Meet at your place say 6:20 ish? If not, no worries, see you in Rodalben...

Anyway, all, please post what time you plan on being there (7:00 at gravel lot, or 9:00 at Lidl).

I am going to do the 7:00 AM start, but likely only half. TDYGuy. I could meet you at the Barbarossa Bakery just south of Vogelweh at 0620 if that works for you. I will send you a PM with my phone number in case anything changes.

0620 at the bakery (125 Trippstadter strasse...I hope) is perfect. I have a silver subaru, see you tomorrow.

I will be in a red nissan frontier.

See you guys in the morning 0700.

Hey spook, what time are you leaving your house? Can I swing over and catch a ride, if John doesn't respond.... I can always catch another ride, or take the train back if you end up only doing half.

I'm going to have to skip it tomorrow. The wife and I both got a bug that's been going around work, leaving me feeling like doodoo warmed over. Not optimal timing, never is.

Leaving around 0600. Holy rainbow that is early for a weekend.

Im just gonna go ahead and drive myself...

Great ride today. See y'all on Tuesday at the castle.

Not sure what happened today, I must have been at the wrong bakery. I drove to rodalben and parked by the gas station at the entrance to town and rode the F trail, you guys are right, great trail! I crossed by the parking lot where your cars were around 10:30...I think, but didn't see anyone around.

Are there any rides after work this week?

Sorry about that. I was at the Barbarossa Bakery in Hoeneken, just south of Vogelweh.

no worries. I will see you guys tonight at the castle. Is there a particular parking lot or anything you meet at?

It is the main parkinglot by the castle.
