Cranksgiving was a success, DC Pirates donated 25-30 pounds of food to the DC Central Kitchen. Thanks to everyone who came out and raced or met up at the finish line. Hope you all had fun.

Please keep an eye out for my buddy's bike... it was stolen today, custom black halavinka.

yeah, this thread was the main reason i continued to read bikeforums, maybe i'll get another desk job one day and have time to kill here again, otherwise i'll probably see you all on _____fixed.com or at an alleycat. good luck in 2007 everyone.

Is this Thursday a polo day or was that last Thurs?

we will never forget
08-26-2006

umm.. spud... i think i already forgot.

what happened then?

Okay, I'm about to make the posting I never thought I'd have to make...

My bicycle, Purple Rain, was stolen from out front of my house last evening. I put it out a few minutes before heading out and it got nabbed. I'm too heartbroken to even be upset. If it comes back, that would be excellent, if not I will make a copy of it.

Here is a picture:http://farm1.static.flickr.com/183/477466055_432e6ca03a.jpg


It is a Panasonic road frame 53 cm in purple with a sparkle coat.
-Mavic OP rims
-Michelin ProRace 2 tires
-Formula hubs
-Shimano 600 crankset
-Surly cog
-KMC Z Chain
-Selle San Marco Rolls Saddle


I am in NW Washington DC. I'm going to check the pawn shops and call the police. Please keep your eyes open. The bike is hard to miss and completely custom, so hard to hide as well. If anyone has any information, please let me know.

I'm going to mourn for a few days and then get started on recreating it. If anyone has the same parts or a 53 cm Panasonic frame, I'd be happy in buying them from you.

Thanks.

Ryan,

Sign up for www.dcfixed.com

I am going to repost this there.

I figured I would bump this since our internet club house is closed right now

:bday:Happy Birthday jonny5:bday:

ok, so it's really two states and one taxation-without-representation-colony-hoping-to-become-a-state, but we'll call it three states, for the sake of discussion...

CALLING ALL PIRATES!
The drunken (and sober, for your straightedge kids) pillaging returns!

Following the great success of our sparks-foraging, fries-eating, makers-toasting, beer-swilling, persian-agitating Farewell to Kenton pillage we are off to our next adventure on the mighty seas of pavement.

THE EPIC TRI-STATE MARGARITA RELAY!
Mark your calendars Wednesday, May 14th, 7pm, at Sherwood. (also known as the polo circle. also known as franklin square. could possibly be labelled as 14th & K NW) Leave 7:30pm

Bring your ID and some cash, as we ride for margaritas in the Free State, the Capitol Colony, and the Southern Commonwealth.
If you're under 21, that's cool, since it's more restaurants than bars anyway, so you'll get in. Really.

Running late? whisper me fore a cell phone #.

Noted.
