Beautiful pics, dave. look at that munchkin! awww. Ps, I like how you're styling your hair these days. very dapper dan man.

Allie, nice not knowing ya! sorry we didn't get a chance to meet.

I am very proud of myself. I repacked my rear hub, and I *think* I did it correctly! (Thanks for use of cone wrenches Christoph.) And I am rocking all my new swapmeet accessories (plus new candys)...please note my hot hot hot $1 purple porcipaw grips. mrowl.

it was real tight that we got to hang out with you at least for a little while
say hello to them richmond folks and tell em who runs the dc streets
we'll be thinking of you when we get sh*t faced this wednesday.

holla back pirates.
we going to do this or what?
lets celebrate

Can't see the attachemnts from work! But wed it is.

Allie, hope to meet you eventually, may be when there is racing and partying in richmond

aww yeah. awesome dia de los muertos image (edit* si hablo espaniol! just kidding.)...I'm there Wednesday.

AND, look what chica is flipping on the sidelines! PANCAKES!!!!!!!! (yeah, yeah, tortillas). You better NOTE THIS: CARB FEVER, The Pancakes and Beer RIDE, is next Tuesday, FEBRUARY 28!! Details will follow. Bring your appetite...for destruction. And pancakes.

In other news, I'm reading Moby Dick again and there's this long-winded digression (ha, like, what the entire book is 'n' stuff), but this one particular digression about sea-faring socializing, and how two ships' crews will swap ships and get togetha and party. it's called a "gam", and, also as a verb, "gamming."

Anyhoo, maybe we need to Kick Out the Gams with Richmond peops? Just an idea.

national pancake day wooooooo.
i'm ready to kick out the gams, and Richmond is so close i wont be sleep deprived.
and since we already won the battle for I-270 and all that, i think its time to kick out the gams with the Baltimore Bandits.

Wednesday night ride ... I hope to be there but I discovered I suck at cleaning a chain after the last round in the snow.

Tink: Happy B-Day! You're almost as old as I am now. ;) :D

Also,all the best to Elisa and the little one. BTW,boy or girl?

SNAP! I'm previously commited to go to another B-Day celebration on Wed (I thought it was Thursday). I may be very very late to Tink's bash, but try as I must!

btw: Dyna, the low geared nexus would have ruled in the snow!

Is this ride still on? I hope there will be some mileage. It's awesome outside.

fo real, where are we even meeting?

olly olly oxen freeeeee!

Birthday-Daddy-Tink wants the pirates to know that we meet at homebase (Warehouse 1017 7th St. NW).

I'm riding up to Tenley for dinner, then I'll ride back to meet you guys. Please have a phone ready....or maybe you guys can ride to tenley to meet me. I'll be at the Salvadorian place on wiscoson ave. Thats the one check point with the little kids during the Rico race.

Btw: Toronto has more posts than we do, can't let them beat us.

after a brief stint back in the rva, i have decided that i can't make it on my own right now. i am in all actuality a daddy's girl. i lived on my own for a year (well with ryan) and it sucked. no, really, being poor sucks. i kid you not. and paying bills. now that sucks. plus it was back to the ******* ryan's apartment. so **** it. i am back in maryland. i will live with my parents for as long as possible.

i will be out for rides or polo as soon as i get my ass back in gear with school. i don't want to fail out of community college.

i want to go to nyc (assuming i have the funds). what is the deal with bikes on the bus?

If you take the Chinatown bus just chuck 'em in the luggage compartment for free.

being poor does suck. its nice to have you back. see you at Haines Point or polo.

Live with the 'rents, bank all the dough and drop a nice down payment on a pad. But ... sometimes its just not worth it; I moved out before I had a job. Welcome back, feel free to take a polo stick to relieve the frustration :)

but only take it out on the polo ball and not fellow pirates, ok? ;)

From what I've heard and seen, Spud thinks otherwise.

Nice ride last night, it all worked out in the end !

last night was the jam.

followed by some classic pirate style chill out in out favorite virginia bar

right...
so ..
do it again next wednesday shall we?

next wednesday? 6 days is polo, 13 days is national pancake pillaging day. narnia

tink, post the rest of your pictures, or at least email me the ones i took. dog balls
mass fun last night. anyone want to contribute to the 'where we roll' (thread (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=172676)) dc post?

So now I'm an offical Pyro...Oh wait, that was way back when, I meant Pirate...which is defintely much cooler (no pun intended).

Anyhow, last night was good times and I look forward to more. I like riding with people, this is a new thing for me, and I can already tell that it could become a habit.

Finally, I know my user name is a bit odd. To explain, all I can say is that sometimes life is backwards.

Hey pirates, came across this on Craigslist tonight. Recognized it from FGG a while ago. It's a Bareknuckle, details in the links. I don't know if the owner is on BF or not, so I thought I'd post it for him. Keep your eyes (eye) peeled. Arrgh.

Good luck to all you Shock Trauma racers. Have fun.

Sunday, 11 am Hains ride. It's going to be cold so bundle up. As soon as I get there, I'm diving into laps. No waiting for lame no-shows on the corner business for me. Give me a ring, or ride counter-clockwise.

Hey all, hope Hains point was fun for you all today. I got to pursue my other passion ... snow sports for the first time this season.

Any who.... monday looks like a great day forming. The new bike wants to make its first US appearance. Thinking abotu a few laps, please PM or call me if you feel like meeting up. I'll be shooting for 11am. also you can email poopncow@tmail.com

RPC, Elbeekay, Britpac, Spud:

It was nice to meet you guys down at Hains Point today. It was fun to ride a few laps, eat grilled cheese, and watch that suicidal cardinal repeatedly fly into the window. I hope I can join up with you (and some other pirates) again sometime soon. Thanks!

Josh
