So the past few weeks of riding have been really great, we now have a good bunch of guys riding in the mornings (from 6 to 10 guys). At the moment we are riding 3 times during the week and then longer weekend rides depending on races and bike parks etc.
The riding program we are developing to make our morning rides more fun goes as follows:
1. Sneak Attack Tuesday – interval training each guy is allowed a sneak attack and when he goes everyone must follow, this is quite fun and makes intervals much more interesting (and competitive)
2. Long Wednesday – generally do a longer ride on Wednesday 40-45km
3. Time Trial Thursday – we scoped out a route last week, it is about a 12km loop from a central point and the idea is that you go like the clappers and try and improve your time from the week before (and of course beat your mates)

I have also purchased myself a nice new gadget to mount on my bike, it's an Optrix iPhone case. It's really cool, I just slip my Apple iPhone 4 in and with an app loaded on the phone I can take great quality videos of our rides.
This is really great because now I can film those magical rides and edit the footage to post on this blog, so that I can share with everyone and also have these rides on record for years to come. Here is my first attempt of some of the ride we did this Wednesday morning before work:
