Well, my pictures are up. There aren't that many but I'm still not that good at so-called Party Photography.

Also, I have video of one style skid, the first round of footdown, and one of Team Puma falling on the stairs. Only, I have no idea how to publish these files. Any Ideas?

Ah my dear friend Mr. Skowlifield, my sincerest apologies. No, i take that back. Apology retracted!Formal negitiotions abandoned! Diplomatic ties cut off! Your puny little arms wouldn't even reach my face. So how 'bout we settle this the old fashioned way: with our velocipedes in a city that is foreign to both of us. And not some ****** flatlander midwester city either, like Cleveland or Duluth or St. Louis, but a real city, with hot dogs and public transpo and ****. You game? Maybe then and there we can get back together. Ambassador Jonnyvus the Fifthus, out.

butterstick tickets are for today!

meet at the conn ave entrance to the zoo no later than 12:30. Our entrance time is 12:50 and it says we have to be in line 20 min early, so...

I really need a big pasta dinner, personally, as recovery for the weekend. So, perhaps after butterstick, an easy 20 mi ride perhaps with some pasta at the end? Maybe ride out to Bethesda and find us some pasta? Whaddy'all think? We'll discuss over panda viewing.

Wow, what a way to get back from a vacation! This weekend was so much fun and torture (30+ mph headwinds where ever you turned) at the same time.

Big thanks to everyone who came from far away to party in DC.

Wow, 49 pages.

Hey, guys. I miss you. I miss riding my bike. I want to come and ride with you people tomorrow evening. This is fairly short notice, but hey, do what you can.

PLAN: meet at Sherwood at 7:30-7:45ish. I don't care what we do, as long as it involves riding bikes. We can ride around and grab some dinner, maybe some beers or whatever. I just want to get on my bike again. I'm going crazy in the suburbs!

Anybody in? (I hardly ever have time to check the BF during the day at work, and I haven't been online as much at home, so that explains my absence. I really miss you guys, though.)

Pirates,

I can't ride for some time. My knee is not getting any better and I have been forced to give up most everything that request the use of legs.

The good news is that I plan on drinking alot, hopeful making polo as a spectator, and siting at home buying bike thinks online that I can't use for a long time.

If you all ride up to my parts (Adams Morgan) give me a call. I can hop down to have a drink or two.

Also, I was thinking of getting a pirate poker game together if anyone would like to play.

Last thing, Do you know that Snapple is making pie in a bottle?https://www.snapple.com/snapplepie.html
