as far as i know there is. i think aaron and josh are doing a ride tomorrow morning that is open to everyone (i can't make it being that i have class then), but as far as i'm aware there will STILL be the normal thursday night ride leaving from the christian science center tomorrow night. the only question is are we keeping it at 10PM or moving it up to 8PM. either way, atleast, i'll be there regardless of the time.

don't know if i'll be able to make it tomorrow night but...THURSDAY NIGHT RIDES @ 8pm FROM NOW ON! that seems to be the consensus, no?
kuje, you should get someone going on the ride to PM you their number so you can call them to meet up if you're interested in riding tomorrow night.

no matter, hopefully the normaly thursday night rides will be in full effect tomorrow.

As for the meeting location for tomorrow's [morning 10-12] ride, directly across from mass art (between longwood and ruggles) on huntington, there's a brass leopard with large testicles.

i'll be there tonight (at 8, i guess?)
also i think i heard someone (i forget who) on one of the rides last week say they needed to use a headset press -- are you still looking? if so, i just got one.. it's definitely the most sinister-looking bike tool i've picked up so far (park hhp-2).

Anyone have suggestions for a new Crank under $140?

last night's ride was pretty sweet. around 20 miles. followed by dumpster diving for pizza (which never really touched the dumpster; f*ck i HATE being lactose intolerant because it looked sooo good). the rain kinda seems to be letting up now, and i think it's supposed to be kinda cloudy and like 50 tomorrow.
