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

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.

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?

I like this idea. Loblaws at 11 sounds good.

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?

I couldn't tell it was you for sure though, but it looked like may have been (the sexy red Poprad caught my attention).

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?
