Re: Group Road ride every Saturday from Thalwil (Zurich)

This is a good idea.

But what might be also an idea is that we can have varied starting places. One member takes responsibility for a ride that he knows he/she will be able to attend. Then suggests a starting place that suits everyone for that ride. This way we can get to explore many areas around all sides of lake Zurich and everyone can take a certain amount of responsibility/ownership of the rides.

We could have a list of Starting places such as:
Horgan
Meilen
Tiefenbrunen
Landeweise
Rapperswil

or so and then someone could plan a ride from each of these places.

Logistically it will be a bit more work to get to each ride. But it would certainly liven it up a bit and we all get to see some new areas.

Just a suggestion, I admit I know nothing about organising road rides so if the idea is silly I apologise.
I like the idea from an interest standpoint (seeing new routes, areas is preferred) . from a practical standpoint, will need to build in time to get there if farther out.... which may limit participation or the ride time if too far out.
