If it already hasn't been mentioned, the DO doodle omits Wednesday because the establishment is closed on Wednesdays.

Edited: ok I'm a bit confused... a google search shows Wednesday a search missing in terms of open hours, but when you hit the website, it shows wednesday as being open...


Wednesdays are good for me which is why I'm bringing this up.

For those interested.. ride to conquer Cancer is June 10-11th. Toronto to Niagara with thousands of riders. I am volunteering as a gear crew there for the 4th year. Great opportunity to tie in with the DO
​​​​​​
DO on Friday & 200+ KM ride for two days = perfection

A 200km ride sounds like death after an AC FT DO

You can also volunteering like me as well. Guaranteed 5lb weight loss after being a baggage crew for a day lol lol

Really? This event is so so not about beating the next guy.

But now I really want to do it just to kick their ....

and if any FT is interested in suffering on a bike I think the Ride for Kids (which lets you do 200 km a day for 3-4 days) is a much better choice.

Yeah I think I'd make it to the finish line with a camera for that. Where is the finish line?

i hadn't considered that opportunity.

There red a number of choice phrases that come to mind:

AC: we just cancelled Aeroplan. FU.

Zone 1 and ahead of you!

i will finish this ride before your call centre answers my call.

So not the time or place to do this but so so tempting.

so we have a few tie breaking days..... and may need volunteers to tip the scale...... similar to the weight distribution problem i encountered once on a A343....

As for omitting Wednesday, it was unintentional.... thought most are in town at the beginning or ending week.....
