In case anyone cares: Bike to Brewery ride this sat. I'm planning on riding from Philly to Reading. Stopping at Sly Fox for lunch, and ending at Legacy (Canal st) for dinner. I'm meeting the wife at the end and driving back. But if anyone wants to join for part of the ride, you're welcome to.

Hmm...I'll be in San Francisco the week before with my bike. Maybe I'll ship it from there to Philly. You jerks will probably just sell it, though.

speaking of weekly, semi-organized rides. is anybody interested in mid-weekday rides?
More specifically, how does a friday lunch-time ride sound?
Good? Great!

Here are the details:
Friday, May 11th.
12 noon.
Franklin Park
A ~45 min ride
Pace: easy/moderate training
Reason: It's nice out, and i should ride more instead of sitting around and getting fat.

Reply or PM with questions/comments.
I'm open to change almost any of the aforementioned ride details, except possibly with regard to start time and ride duration.
As for destination, no idea, but maybe crosstown/crossriver to West River Drive, north to East Falls Bridge, south via the Schuykill Trail.
As for start location, I work across the street from Franklin Park, but I would gladly meet somewhere else if there is interest. Possibly city hall/love park.

Um... that's it.
