and for the record, Ziggy's race on the island is infact TOMORROW. I'll be racing from 11:30-12:30, if anybody wants to check it out. I ride for the Midweek cycling club

After you left last night Keith told us that that rim had been ridden hard by some messenger dude for years and that it would most likely not build straight, had stress dimples on it etc. I think that's what he meant when he said "it's out back for a reason". Just sayin'.

Man that kid last night on the Cervelo could totally have kicked our asses.

P.S. I'm up for going to the island tomorrow/checking out bike polo/possibly checking out the crit race/riding around/"dorking around" (as Ryan says) etc. ROCK AND ROLL

Let the kid find out the hard way...

Hmm I don't know. I don't even know what time stuff starts over there tomorrow. Anyone have any idea?

I_bRAD 05-12-07 08:30 PM

I think racing starting at 10:30 polo at noon

The ZM Cycle Crit is going from 10ish-3:30ish

http://www.zmcyclefitness.com/downlo...rit_Island.pdf

I'm going as well to check it all out. I was thinking to be there around 11:30 or 12... not sure.

I'm flexible if a few all want to go together?

Danhalen 05-12-07 08:38 PM

I'm confused how is polo and crit racing going to simultaneously coexist? I'm up for going say maybe 11ish or something? I'm probably going to bed early tonight so I'll actually probably *gasp* be up early tomorrow.

Up early Sunday morn? Damn...

I think polo is going to be held near the island airport. 11ish is cool with me. Wanna stock up on some grub at Bob Loblaws before we head out?

Yes, it is my belief that this proposed arrangement would provide an acceptable level of utility.

Hey man that other day when I rode by you, I saw your bike later locked up on Queen east, like River street-ish. I guess this really isn't a very interesting story but there you go :D

I like this idea. Loblaws at 11 sounds good.

fisso416 05-12-07 08:55 PM

I think I hit Mercury for coffee, then Vistek, then Dominion for lunch with a buddy.

I love that area - Darkhorse also...

Is it cool if I tag-along tomorrow? Should we state a time/place for a meet?

Yeah I think you were parked around near Vistek. I've delivered many a package into that place.

Loblaws at 11 works for me.

Get some plates this time so you don't drop your meat on the ground again.

Oh P.S. Christian I like how you took pictures of hot babes at the pillow fight! Nice! :)

You're just jealous that my meat can reach the ground.

ps. I think you rode past me on Thursday afternoon. I was sitting by the new UofT Varsity Stadium thingy eating lunch around 1:00pm and I think I saw you ride by in a Discovery jersey. I couldn't tell it was you for sure though, but it looked like may have been (the sexy red Poprad caught my attention).

Yeps, 'twas me...I got the Discovery jersey cheap at the bike show and I had Thursday off work so I biked around.

Speaking of sightings, I think I saw ronin sometime last week on John st when I was looking out the window at work.

I only posted 30% of my pics - I had to de-perv them a bit.

Are we talking the Lablaws near the 'Governement' nightclub?

Interesting article on fatigue testing 12 different frames (carbon, aluminum, titanium and steel tested).
