sr20det 03-31-06 04:53 PM

just came back from a soaking 20km sprint around the community.
its much better when its raining because cars seem to be much more assertive :)
hope you guys have fun at CM.

eyefloater 03-31-06 06:00 PM

Oh those mother****ers. Both Somna and T.J.'s cell phones aren't picking up. If I have to ride around d/t looking for those bastards someone is definitely going to get knee-capped.

Not able to make it out tonight, but hope to on Sunday if others can.
Cheers

mmm.. beer 'n tacos. Just home for a quick pitstop before I head out to the MSTRKRFT show. You guys missed out. No rain during CM, great beer/food at Sneaky Dee's afterwards. I took a few pics (on my old-school 2MP brick), but I have no idea how they turned out.

Saw a guy on a Cannondale bail on the streetcar tracks on Queen.. apparently he was sick of waiting behind us slow-moving CM'ers. Pretty funny. Dude was obviously pretty embarassed. Didn't say anything and just hopped back on his bike and sped off. Everyone in the CM group went "waaaaaaaaoh!" at the same time. I saw sparks! ;)

gokiburi 03-31-06 10:10 PM

still at work... HAHAAHAHAhaaaaaa... hey, that's not funny.
i could kill for beer n' tacos right about now.

eyefloater 03-31-06 10:38 PM

*urp* Steak + eggs + 4 beers for dinner = PERFECT. Am I mistaken or was that 32flavours from our very own thread here riding along w/ everyone during CM? Someone introduce us, I'm such a social outcast it'll never happen otherwise.

Oh, and if anyone wants a shot at the "one block sprint challenge" belt that I'm currently holding title to, feel free to step up to the plate. I'm entertaining all challengers (*cough* excluding Traffic Jammer *cough*). ;)

operator 03-31-06 11:15 PM

I challenge you ...... to the donut ride (Sunday kthx).

eyefloater 03-31-06 11:19 PM

**** that ****, man. "ONE BLOCK" challenge ...

Ill Mitch 04-01-06 01:03 AM

How was the turn out for CM today?

somnambulant 04-01-06 09:38 AM

turn out was kind of weak, but probably on par for a rainy march day (even though it didn't rain at all during CM).

I could go for that steak and eggs right now.. mmm

TRaffic Jammer 04-01-06 10:26 AM

Yea that was a good time I'm in for more.
My wife tells me I gotta get out more so she can miss me. lol
It was certainly great seeing everyone and meeting new people from here.
nice to finally put some faces to names (32flavors, darkmother)
The ride THROUGH the Eaton Centre was the bomb.

You know I think the 'net thing might catch on. :LOL:
This is how it's supposed to bring like minded people together IMHO

eyefloater...why am I excluded?

cavernmech 04-01-06 12:25 PM

I don't know if any of you are aware of it....but....Jetfuel Party tonite! 14 years, 14 kegs. Hope to see some of you there. K.

TRaffic Jammer 04-01-06 12:36 PM

Yea my friend told me about it last night, sounds like fun. The kids are going to grandma's tonight ..... hmm i wonder if I can convince my wife to come out tonight for a bit. She doesn't drink beer though, is there bar action as well?

32flavours 04-01-06 01:22 PM

Eyefloater: yep, that was me. Nice to meet you. I probably should've said something, but apparently social outcast-dom goes both ways... heh.

Everyone else: are people riding tomorrow? Hmm.

They typically have a few (many) bottles of wine. I always look forward to a shot or 2 of Johnny's patented homemade "Vodka". Grain alcohol would be a better term for it tho. GOOD TIMES!!

operator 04-01-06 01:43 PM

Yeah darkmother said he was going to do the donut ride tomorrow, i'm coming for that.

Anyone down for lunch tomorrow kensington afterwards?

somnambulant 04-01-06 03:08 PM

lunch in kensington tomorrow sounds like a great idea. Where and what time?

also: anyone else going to the jet fuel thing tonight? If so, just post. I've got nothing to do tonight, so I'm considering stopping by. I haven't been out there in months.

cavit8 04-01-06 04:25 PM

I'll be there

cavit8 04-01-06 07:35 PM

Eyefloater, the straps are Silvas.

I don't know where I got "A" from ...

Also got my hub rebuilt. There was a detonated bb as I suspected. If I can go get groceries, eat, get across town in time, I'll be there for Critical Vacuum. Don't wait for me if I'm not there at 9:30.
