The GLEEEBE reminds you to put brakes on the bike.

team pirate, assemble?


Up-and-Coming Events:
April 30th--Track Racing Clinic (Trexlertown, PA): Get a jump on this
experience! Clinics are the ONLY time that you can rent a track bike and
get expert instruction on the track. It's a lot of fun, and great for your
confidence and handling skills. More to come...

The Glebe,for those who couldn't make it:
https://www.arlingtoncountywebsite.co...m&g2_itemId=56

(after what happened to Tink,I ain't linking to no image)

Spud: glad you're ok. That looked brutal. Gave me an emmildew flashback. Hope the bikes' ok too. The Fuji's too pretty for crashing.

Chimbly: smack me if I forget to give you the pipe cutter at CM or polo. I brought it on Tues,but didn't think of it until after you'd peeled off.

Cool, should be fun and not too brutal.
I'm out of town 4th thru 11th, and the 25th is not good (smithsonian kite festival...which is a good time, we should visit)

How about Tax day? and with taxes I think of glutonny, and with glutonny, I think of gut and when I think of gut I think of pot bellies, and when I think of pot bellies I can't help but think "NAVAL". Still interested?

spud.. you're such a sissy.
quit your whining!

yeah,, remember michelle? our friend gnidir peek?
well i called her last night to find out what's been going on, and if she was ok.

get this.

she was in an bike accident,
she fractured her pelvis and broke her collarbone (?) in three places!!!!!!

so i ask her, "OMG how are you doing, can I bring you lunch etc.", and she's all like, "naw i'm okay, i can get around just fine with my crutch, i want to feel normal..."

holy sh*T!
that's one tough lady!

still feel like you're banged up?
didn't think so

I think some new bar tape will cover it, my leg and forearm took most of the impact.

my maiden crash, it had been crashed before, the Fuji bars need new tape too.

monstertrack content
team pirate assemble? please?
i'm picking up the car ~530 at dollar rent a car at DCA (it's off-airport). where will you meet me? there? somewhere else? it would be best if we didn't have to go through the city... PM me, mateys.

tshirt content
guys, i think we need to move on 2006 tshirts. i owe them to two people already for being good pirate hosts.
i also think that if LBK doesn't wanna do 'em, we should just hire out. this would mean we have to order a batch and guess on future-needed sizes, but i don't think one pirate need be burdened with the tshirt duties (unless she wants to...)

anyone?

I'm gonna pass on the t-shirt responsibilities to someone else. I lost money when pirates ordered and then went awol or took a shirt and didn't pay (cough. emilymildew.) harrumph.
*edit* oh, but i'd definitely buy one with unicorns on it.

No critical mass for me. But I'll be out for Sunday Hains Ride. It's been so long since I had grilled cheese...

And get well soon wishes to Michelle! what a trooper!
