Will do. Many may question why you followed the statement "you are a big bear" with "i'd like to see your frame sometime" but I know what you mean. Pictures of the frame will be up soon, I'll probably pick it up Thursday.
Peace

oh because we have held conversations before and you know how i am unable to mantain a straight line through a conversation. and you are a beast/bear at riding bicycles

dear philadelphia,

i may be a resident again starting in 2007. other than pretzel ride and thrashin thursday, do you guys do a lot of group rides?

love,
ryn

we be tryin. like fridays but they sort of fizzled. dont worry i will try to organize some more

i love dc because we do a lot as a group. i love my pirates. we have picnics and stuff too, and i am setting up a holiday potluck on what is possibly one of my last weekends. we also have wrenching parties and other events. if i move up there, which is pointing towards yes, would you guys be interested in doing events such as i have listed?

i am very down with that.

hey max, if nobody in nyc is setting up a new years eve alleykitten, wanna help plan one with me?

edit: (if there is one in ny, anybody gonna go up?)

are you reading my mind? an i always wanted to set up an alleycat.

shoot me a pm or something

im down to go with you if theres something.

pirate road trip if its on. and youre always welcome at pirate events chris.
(but then again, we welcome anybody)

I'm down for the group events (especially riding, wrenching and rum drinking). And the alleykitten sounds sweet, here or up in NYC, where ever.

pleaseeeeeeee. i think i speak for a lot of people when i say this lack of alleycats is depressing

i have a place to stay in new york, i'd have to ask how many people can crash there though. spud says it sounds like the new york one will be happening, but i'll be sure to let you guys know when i find out.

and also, since max and i both want to put on a race anyways, there will be a valentin's alleycat/kitten. one day, two routes. one for first timers/out of towners/people who just want a nice easy fun ride, and another for people who want to have a longer ride with more things to do, and probably quite a bit more difficult.

that is gonna be saturday, february 10.

Yesss. Me and the lady are ready for a cute, fuzzy, gentle alleykitten. May I request no slush on the roads and a temperature above 55 degrees? Didn't think so :(

Its Philly in February, you have a 50% chance of that wish being true.

Its either nice or ****e in that city, theres no ehhhh.

sorry luke.

yes alleycat and alleykitten on the same day

max, are we going to use the same start/finish for both races? I think definately same finish is a good idea at least. And then to the same bar(or house party if anybody wants to offer that up) afterwards for the announcement of winners and a nice celebration.

the kitten is promised to be fun, silly, short, and cute.

the cat will be a good race though.

edit: that first part probably could have been PMed. oh well.

Meh, that's ok. I'll be there anyway. Yay races!

I second the YAY RACES. How many of you philly kids would be wanting to go to NY for New Years if thats where the race is?

for the kitten, for the dumbo race in NYC, they did two manifests, but that was for everyone, you could do that and have one race (short and long).

Same start and finish, just make them go seperate ways at the start.

we are doing two different manifests. we have been communicating via PM about checkpoints and how we want to run in. we're farther along than you guys probably think.
:)

cool...might have to come down for this.

it is definately suggested.

shh keep your mouth shut. !! huge secret

+1 definitely
