Critical Glace...
Har hardy har. As much as it pains me to say this, I'm wondering if we could postpone till tomorrow. I was up at 630 today to haul ass out to UTSC for tutorial teachin' and am tired as all heck.
Whatever happens, we should definitely try to get out to Dolce Gelato, where all happiness resides.

Doors open at 10, but never having been to one of these bad boys before, I don't know what an appropriate camp out time will be for the ensuing brouhaha. I'm looking for road shoes and shiny black stuff, mostly, although I'd grab some tires if an amazing deal is in the offing. And some BMX wheels/rims.

Speaking of, how does everyone feel about a rain contingency? It would appear thus far that there's a 60% chance of rain and a low of 10°C. If that holds it could be miserable... which I can commit to if I know people will show. Otherwise, we could meet somewhere for a beer instead or something...? Suggestions?

So umm ... I may only be able to "afford" a 29er (and the Rob Roy) if I go rigid single speed. This should prove interesting.

it's only 40% chance of rain for tomorrow night. i'll come by the sprints on my way home from work but be warned: i just attached another rack to my bike which in my opinion will make it as fast as cutting speed-holes into it. watch out!

What time are sprints again? I just realized I'm going rock climbing in the evening so possibly gelato meet-up is doomed again. Unless it's afterwards.

last week it seemed that everyone showed up at the ex at around 9, although i believe the meet time at grange park for the ride down to the ex (for the easterners) is 8:30.
