I've officially geared down my ride for tonight. I'm going straight up 2:1. Hope I'm not the slow kid in class.

Yah. Met this guy before. Before the start of last CM. Why?

he is in the newspaper

ok, I'm coming tonight. I've got this meeting at the Reference Library from 7-9, so I'll just leave a little early, so I can meet you all at 9.

i've kinda made it a policy to not ride the first major snowfall of the season. people are just too unprepared. especially since it's a monday.
so i took transit. a >10 min ride = 30 min on the streetcar. argh.
on the way home i was given a token, but steps out of the building i ran into a friend that is a courier. oh the shame! then i took one look at the sardines packed into the streetcar and opted to walk instead. was very glad for the proper hiking boots, coat etc i wore.

hahahahahaha ya man hairrrrrrrrrrrrry...yo the roads were sweet on the ride home tho...think theylll be that way tomorrow morn??

Looks like I can't make it tonight after all... have fun to those who do!

1 hour, 45 mins and counting

I love this big red font.

Whew I don't know if I'm up for the ride tonight guys. My knee is kinda sore and after working 8 hours in this stuff I've kind of had my fill of snow riding. I might show up and then just not do the whole thing. I haven't decided yet. Just givin' a heads up.

So far for London I'm assuming these are the people that want to go:

Me, Duppy, Tovi, Lymbzero(?), Dr. Benway, Offhoff

If I got a car, I would be able to fit 4 passengers as long as someone didn't mind sitting in the middle in the back seat.

It doesn't have to be this weekend, actually it might be better for it to be another weekend for me and maybe that might be better for you too Shamil (I probably mispelled your name again sorry). Would the 27th better than the 20th for any of you guys? Anyone else want to go?

Well, people may be bailing, but I'm totally there. I'll even bring powerbars :)

If you guys are going out there you should see about doing track 1 and 2 at the same time

I'll up the anty but suggesting a post ride pint some place :beer:

Due to unforseen circumstances, I'm bailing on tonight's ride. I had this thing at 7PM tonight, so I went by Bloor/Spadina to pick up my bike lock (I leave it locked to the post-and-rings by itself) en route to the Ref. Lib., but my lock is FROZEN!! I couldn't get it to unlock, so I really had no choice but to ditch the meeting and come back home. F*ck, I'm so annoyed. I really have nothing to do in town b/w 7 and 9, so I'm ditching the ride with you guys, too. Sorry.

On a brighter note, it's a helluva lot of fun out there right now. Find some quiet roads and you'll be sliding all over the place! Wee! And cars are being super patient and careful in passing me, which is nice to see.
Enjoy yourselves out there!!

Where are you guys meeting anyways?

Parking lot behind Honest Ed's (Bloor & Bathurst)

D'oh I'm such a dork. I go to MEC to buy a portable coffee grinder and a rack for my MTB. I leave the grinder at the store after buying it, and the rack is too small. Awesome!

Ontop of that at least two of your posts today contained Klingon...

ghobe', wej'logh

Hey man I thought you said you wanted to come too?

So is anyone going to the ride? I about ready to go and be there for just before 9.

I'm suiting up. This is going to be awesome. I look like a sugoi model, only lamer.

I've even strapped on my big double halogen front light with the big bottle holder battery.

See you guys at quarter to 9

I am defintely going to have to pass, my knee is pretty sore. Dammit I'm really disappointed. Have fun guys! If you were going to meet somewhere after maybe I could meet up with you guys or something but then again how would i know where to go? probably not worth the trouble have fun!

q'pla!

nope you spelled it right!

I will endeavour for the 27th...gotta check with the powers that be tho first...

did you guys actually ride in the snow? i had my fill of it going to and from today.
