THANKS GUYS, IT WAS FUN.
i'll be back in town on sunday, but i'll be playing a show at tufts - which is free, if any of you want to check it out - and i'd be down for riding afterwards...

I keep tossing around the idea of having a fixed gear film festival (pedal, red light go, the puma dvd, the mashsf trailer, etc.). I envision it in someones apartment (I'd be willing to host), with a ride after.

Anyone going to see The Have Nots (or maybe it's The Rights, I can't tell - Jon Cauztik of the Stray Bullets, anyhow) show in some basement in JP on sat?
There were a bunch of bikes there last time I saw the Bullets and I think Jon might mess?

My roommate decided to "Ghost ride" his mountain bike this evening and after it hit a curb, breaking the rear suspension piece again, I fell over on my bike laughing so hard, and ended up breaking another crankbrothers road shoe adapter.
It was funny but not 7.50 funny.

I don't know where my card reader is.
But I'll take it out Thursday (unless it is raining). because my rear wheel on the KHS is still way out of round/true and I don't know when I'll make it to a LBS before the weekend

Foolishly, I biked off without getting the guy's info. About ten yards down the road I realized my bike wasn't actually all right but by then the guy'd driven off. Oh well, at least he has a Rob-sized dent in his hood to worry about.
