ryand, is the ride leaving at 2:30 or just meeting then? My last class ends then and it's a midterm so I can't blow it off entirely.

2:30
Rittenhouse
Do it.
i dont get out of class until 330, meh. But later i do plan on riding around to numerous dunkin donuts locations

Water ice, iced coffee, ice cream, lame. Isn't there somewhere giving away free beer? Or at least HOT coffee?

I missed the fun last night, but next week I just may shrug off my fatherly duties and actually stay up for the pretzel ride!

thanks to whoever locked up their lemond right next to my bike on the fence outside of anderson. Nothing like seeing what a crappily thrown together junkpile I ride (I still love it, though).

as for tonight: I have a date with the gf, a bottle of jack daniels and seasons 2 and 3 of the office.. so no go.

sorry if this makes little to no sense, some metal kid walked into the tech center with long, krimped hair and I can't type and giggle at the same time.

and babychris, I think pat invited you to the dance party at our place? If so, bring short shorts.. they're pretty much required.

ha. short short parties are fun.

The hilter vs. knee comparisons are freakin' awesome. Let us charge forward to the 20,000 post goal on the shoulders of Max and Adolf!

Oh ****! Does this mean that the water ice ride is going to be revived from its years old grave? Please say yes! I'm not going to be able to make it tonight. I have an appointment to have more of my back removed. But I am soooo with it as a new weekly ride. Mondays, perhaps, to replace the defunct falafel ride?

And yeah, Max. The mountain bike was flatted too, and ended up having multiple pinches. We rode the second that everyone was up and running. Maybe we should put a piece of plywood up as a ramp so people who can't properly hop curbs don't flat? Like hide it somewhere at the art museum and bust it out when the time comes?

we'll see that sounds liek a good idea. maybe a harder ride or something.

the pretzel ride is more and more aggravating. people should come prepared or something. i didnt have any tools on me and if i got a flat, i know people would have helped me but i would have been content walking my bike home too since it was my own fault for not having my proper gear.

its not that far to the pretzel factory or whatever. so i am an existentialist. **** happens, be prepared. but the best part was the ire i was getting from people as i sped off. long post sorry sorry.
