i would be certainly interested in mid week rides, working shifts affords me time off thru the week and I prefer it to busy weekends .

I'd be interested if you are ok with a 62 year old tagging along.   Jerry

I find these big rides start out with huge ambitions. Last time I went on one we did 180 kms, fished out one sled out of canal (failed attempt). Either break down or someone decides to run water etc. Not once have we done 450 kms lol 😂.  I guess that's why they said they are going to stay on trail but in reality that doesn't  always happen 😆. 

Did an unplanned high miler in 23/24 season and was begging to see a random motel or B&B sign. My wife laughed at me for the next 3 days.  I heard her say, "the old fool" while she was on the phone too. I got zero pity.
