Please join XXXII flavs and myself for an enjoyable ride! It will be the underground analog to Critical Mass. Second Sunday of every month. Do not disappoint. We are meeting in the parking lot behind honest ed's. PM XXXII for a phone #. Be there or have 4 equal sides all of which meet at perpendicular angles.

Seriously show up or you are a loser.

Andrew

Parking lot behind Honest eds? If I get on my roof I could pretty much spit on you, or at least wave and yell at you. I'm right at the corner of harbord and markham.

I'd be rebelling against the WOman actually.

but alas, it's more out of laziness than anything else. 11:00 is bedtime!

That is very weird, I swear it was up to date before. (i.e it had the bayview extension).

How was that ride? You passed right by my house. I'm guessing you stopped by Lake Wilcox. The bethesda sideroad leading into it is horrible gravel.

the gravel didn't bother me so much, if you saw the bike I was riding (full fenders, 26" wheel Hardrock converted into a road bike with drop bars and a much higher gearing blasphemus)... the guys I was with complained pretty loudly about it though... ha!

man, that's my old stomping ground! keep going further north and some of the sideroads that run east-west are even less travelled. try taking one of them west to jane street and then take that south back into the city. it is pretty much just a country road until you get to maple...

Totally. We should do it again. I think veteran_youth has decided to christen it the "Critical Vacuum" ride. I'll try to be faster next time Apologies for falling over on to your bike, but it was just too funny for me not to do it.
