Portlandia - who's up for a ride this long weekend?
@jyl went and got himself a job (as did I), and must be consumed by it, based on the nearly immediate loss of postings at the bikeforum.net site. Chris's wife is ready to give birth to their first child, Mike and his wife are either out on a bike tour or are just getting back and are wiped out, @Velocivixen must be takin a break from rebuilding her fleet of Raleigh 20's, and @Andy_K is out purchasing every cool Italian chromed frame out there, and can't be bothered.
Who's up for a spin?

I haven't even had time to properly wipe after sh*tting, to use a nasty expression. Not just the job, other stuff too (not bad stuff, though).
Yeah, I'm up for a ride. Saturday is busy, although I would happily meet up with you guys at the post ride recovery swill, thus getting the benefits of the ride without all the icky pedaling. Sunday starting late morning works best for me to actually ride, could fit in a late repast at Peoples Pig. Monday I have a meeting at 1 pm that could suck up much of the day. Edit: it might be at 10 am. Anyway I'm out of pocket Monday.

I could ride Saturday, Sunday or Monday. I have a slight preference against Saturday as I was planning to go over to Vancouver to watch some CX racing, but I'm not planning to race so a fun ride would probably take precedence if that works out better for others.

Hey Gugie! I wish I join you guys!! I've been too busy this week to try and swing by your shop, as I'm getting ready to head to Germany for 27 days! Leave on Saturday . What's worse about leaving Saturday is that I'm probably going to miss the USC Bama game. Ride on, and Fight On (Trojans!).
