Bikes just don't explode like they used to. All those CF lightweight goodies look good in the ads, but when they explode the shrapnel is so light that you might as well have just thrown a handful of monopoly houses at someone.

AAaAGHgh! The doctor said I'm not supposed to get Monopoly houses in my eye!

ps. I'm honestly depressed that 'cross season is ending. That was a LOT of fun.

well played, sir.

Ryan and I left around 9:20 as we were the only ones there. I won by default.

To paraphase the immortal Homer, 'Ahhh the two greatest words in the english language, de fault.'

Yeah generally Nadir and crew are already there when I show up a lil before 9p. When I got there lastnight, no one in sight. I practiced backwards circles for about 10 minutes when Pyze showed, but alas two is not enough to get the sprints going. We hung for another 10 - 15 and headed out. We saw one person who looked like they might be going over but they skipped the red across lakeshore and we missed them figuring another 1 person still wasn't enough.

No worries, the way I see it is I get a decent night ride in once a week. It's also my fault for not getting the word out earlier. That being said, I will do my best to update both on here and the FB group before 5 but unless we post a cancellation - which will only likely happen in wet/icy dangerous weather.

It was also good inspiration to get the damn site done that everyone could just refer to for updates on everything!

heh... i didn't finish that thought...

Basically, unless we cancel, it's on. The only likely reason we would cancel you would probably already have known by looking outside / your commute home conditions.

/thought :D

It could have been angry hot dog vendors :D

I have a street-meat craving now. :P

yuck. where do they wash their hands wes? where do they wash their haaaaands!? [raises chinched fists to sky].

Where do they keep all their food handling gloves? :lol:
mmm char that hotdog..yea roll it around on the grill

I am all for mixing things up with some offbeat artistic interpretations but the guy/girl who played the hoax really screwed the pooch. The fundraiser for the Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research is a big one and to think they had to cancel just because someone has a crappy sense of humour makes jet an unhappy boy.

indeed there is fun for the sake of art and then just being a tool.... that said I wonder how much of a grant he'll get next year?

That must have been me, I swore I saw blinkies near the start, and as I approached from the two parking lots (safety first), it turned out to be a mirage.

id rather john kricfalusi was working on a new feature or something, but ill take it.

just got back from 400/7, both water bottles are partially frozen - wind was a bit brisk heh. Was worse heading up there, some scary into-traffic crosswinds thrown into the mix. Hour and a half there from work, hour back home, so not bad at all... Pretty happy about it. :)

Welcome back to the jungle man.

You and me both. I haven't actually seen the Ren & Stimpy episodes he did for Spike. The fact that they cancelled it because *their* censors freaked out makes me want to rent 'em though. :P

Just had a Bellybuster Sub, the Bellybuster. And I too want seconds.

now off to the sports bar for a beer and some food

Hey is there a race tomorrow? if so when and where, ? thought i head some rumblings of a race a few days back?

it's a race to Betty's to say thanks to Keith for all his years of keeping folks on the road. 6pm or even sooner to help secure space in the bar.

operat0r: you guys have koolstop salmons at the shop? I gotta grab a new set of pads before I head of of town. My pads got absolutely pwned at provincials last weekend. :P
