Maybe give the neighbors a heads up, tell 'em we're a community bike club and invite them over for some bbq. Also probably keep the alcohol relatively low key (maybe have everyone bring a paper bag?) while it's light out, just in case cops show.

I think we could get away with it though.

The last Silver Line bus to the airport leaves South Station at 12:45, and would only get you there a few hours early as another option. I feel like the airport bars that are past security in other airports I've been in are open all night, not sure if thats the case in Logan though.

I'd like to think that I'll be able to ride tonight, but I still have Christmas shopping to take care of. Someone drop me a line if theres gonna be something happening though.

Anyone interested in doing some kind of New Year's Eve race?

cityraincityst

I was thinking about goingn to the New York "Alley Kitten" but if something happens in Boston I'll definitely be there.

octopus magic

I don't have anything on new years planned, so I'm good for anything.
Or at least I don't have anything now!

stephenhatesyou

i miss you, boston. come see me in nyc.

Anybody heading down for the weekend? I was there last year for the Times Up ride and to see friends and there's no better place to celebrate. I'm thinking about the AlleyKitten. I'd consider driving my Exploder rather than dealing with the bikes on the bus and could fit two others and three bikes in there.

there should be some sort of a drink-your-face-off until midnight race or something of the sorts...

someone get a race together!
don't make me do it

Anyone miss me?

Of course I did.

octopus magic

speaking of abandoned fixed/ss, there's a Van Dessel like mine (although much more uglified with tape and crap tires/wheels/etc) that's been sitting in Kendall square a little down from the Au Bon Pain for a month also.

I'm almost ready to cut that lock....

Yo, you bought a garmin? How do you like it?

How's the new bike working out for you?

transplant

the garmin is pretty neat in a geeky kinda way... i'll give you the tour when i'm back... ^_^

the bike is working well... not a bike i could race competitively on without some component changes, but it's a good ride.

chuck_norris

Yeah, I ride occasionally with a dude that has a 205. The price on the 301 has dropped so much that I'm trying hard to not pull the trigger, but I may this summer, especially if I can't solve the problems of the computer/hrm that I'm using right now.

I think your fondreist has very similar components to the merckx-- pre99 chorus right? You got a deal. With that price tag, you can swap out the group, and still be way under retail.

I have a friend that picked up a rival group for me from gvh. I'm going to make the upgrades very soon, but the chorus group is amazing in so many ways and I'll be putting it on Gwen's bianchi as part of her Xmas present.

Before I forget, you have to get on this bike that belongs to a girl that Aaron's seeing. It made me feel gigantic.

transplant

yep, same chorus group as yours. it's pretty snappy. goin' with sram 'eh? i'm trying really hard to not bite on this or this. just need to finds something big and not flexy

ratattack

any more thought about putting together a couples race in february?

chuck_norris

Yeh, I saw someone link to that fetish in the road forum. Talk about amazing deals. I think it had a BIN originally for something under 2k.

transplant

that's where i found it too.. decided to hold off for a month until i can find a crappy job. i'll be back in town on wed.. i think we should set up trainers in your living room and start riding to nowhere haha.

February 10th. Allston/Brighton Scramble. Keep an eye out of more details.
