Hey Guys,

I am an early morning Saturday/Sunday rider, average ability (16 - 18mph).  I often see small groups going in opposite directions than I am and would love to hook up with any of them sometime.  I generally ride 40 miles with hills.  If you have a regular ride, I would love to join you... it's late in the season and have been doing a lot of solo riding for most of the season.

Also, wondering what time the Knucklehead group hits Clarkson and Clayton... seem to miss them every Sunday... (good group since they have a few catch up stops)  ;-)

If open to another rider, please let me know time and place.  All my best.

It's probably different by some minutes every sunday morning, best just get up early and idle at clarkson and clayton for a while. Or do what I do and putz down clayton and wait for them to catch you.

You can also go to meetups.com, join and look for cycling groups in St. Louis.  I have ridden with St. Louis cycling and St. Louis Adventure group and andother meetup group.  SLC meetup has a lot of members  in the west area.

Knucklehead generally passes my house (between Kehrs Mill and Clarkson) between 7:30 and 7:35.  I would recommend rolling out at 7am and getting warmed up and then jumping in/on.  Obviously, stay in the area so that you see them coming in case it's earlier or later. ;-)

I've never done the Knucklehead ride, but from what I hear, it's quite a bit more than just "average ability (16 - 18mph)"

I think that's just the average going up Ossenfort.
