Write Up:
No rain this time, it was a glorious evening, and the biggest peloton (the French meaning, not the Colombian) of the year so far. (Although Mark *was* there, hmmm.. it may work either way).

We did the full loop down to Quarry Park and through the new trails on St. Patrick's Island beside the zoo before closing the loop to the start. I even got to meet one of my neighbours riding along the canal. Several people commented after they had never seen these parts of the city trail system before and were happy they came along (and I'm happy they did too).

For the people keeping count: Our overall average speed (including stops) was 14.5 km/h, our moving average Derk said was 19.5 km/h or so and we did 137 m of total cumulative climbing. It took 2 hours and 5 minutes, exactly as hoped.

A large contingent retired to the 'Hose patio after for some rehydration.

Thanks to everyone who came out, it was a really good and fun group!
