are you suggesting some sort of "bike to brunch" ride on the weekends?
I am sure I could get Peter to draw a bike with two pancakes for wheels.

here is the trick, Can people start to recommend some brunch places in the city that are not terribly crowded? I love Sabrinas, Pour House, Melrose Diner... but we will never be able to get more than 4 people into any of those places on a weekend for brunch. It would probably have to be someone more on the outskirts of the city?

no way, I put AIDS in your pierogies last week at moms, so I know those touched your lips. (you see, I was nice there, I was GOING to say that I put AIDS on the tip of your boyfriends penis... but see, I am making an attempt to be nicer to you.... oops!)
HOORAY FOR MAX!

i remember when traffic jammer tried to change his avatar. it made me sad. trailer park boys is one of my favorite shows, and it is also conveniently on google video, so i get to watch it.
good places for brunch are mug shots in manayunk (but not if you have a lot of people).

How about https://www.thesettable.com/
Geez, I can never figure out how to embed a url in a word(s).
Anyway, I've never been, but I've heard good stuff about it.
Its in East Falls which would make for a pleasant destination/ride, as well as offer an opportunity to burn off some calories on the way back to center city.
Regardless,
REMINDER: weekday lunchtime ride tomorrow (Friday), 12 noon, at the Franklin Park Fountain. A ~45 min ride to the East Falls Bridge via West River Drive/Schuykill Trail

From Carina: "I submitted a photo that I took of one of the NBW staff workers to a photo contest that awards the non-profit of your choice $1000. It would be so great for NBW to get this to use towards getting better bikes and parts for the kids.
What I need ALL OF YOU to do is VOTE for my photo on this website:

if you can't tell which one is mine, it's this one:

look for it on the list (#20) and PLEASE VOTE!
Thanks!
