Which med center folk might you be? I'm on a red fuji with bullhorns and usually I hang out at crossroads cafe on the weekend. I see a fixed every now and then, unless I'm riding with my messenger friends. Cinco night was great! We all had sombreros and went riding around the Montrose area. We hit up Cecil's, Catbirds, and Rudyard's. We must have been a sight to all that were in the bars when we came in, and also to those on the street when we rode by! Lotsa cool people, I'm glad it all came together. One of the ladies that rode with us is a member of the Houston Roller Derby. Hopefully we'll have more rides like that. I'll have to add a big +1 to riding outside the loop as being the suck. My regular riding buddy just got back from China, so I'll be able to do my usualy evening rides to UH, Downtown, and back to the Village. I just met a nice lady from Atlanta who'll be going to UH in the fall (she noticed my fixie and commented it was the first she saw in H-town). she wants to start up Critical Mass down here. Dunno how that will work out, but hey, I'll give a hand.
20th is also a Houston Roller Derby bout at the Arabian shrine on N.Braeswood by Kirby. It would be cool to get a ride going and then end up thereabouts.
Burn, I will ride with you sometime. Do you know Dustin at Rudyard's (gray Surly)? I've ridden with him and his friends before.
