Friday, August 26th. At Cal's (Van Buren and Wells).

Anyone interested say I (saying I means you are 100% going).

After 10 I's the party is officially on.

Plan on riding your bike.

The plan is already in place. See ya there!

I will be around for the CM, then will hopefully swing by Cal's for a bit afterwards. So I'll give you a lower case "i"

aye!

eye!

sorry Capt. Mayo and the crew ~ I am out for the weekend.

Whoa!~I thought mayo was dead!

I was going to be there, but finances dictate otherwise. Going to see Social Distortion Sunday as a consolation prize.

Post or pre? There's a meet-up for pre and then mass, will there be post?

I'd be up for it. Monkey mentioned doing a post-mass pub crawl if people were up for it. Not sure how long I'd keep from passing out, but I should be able to get some sleep on the train...

Stupid train leaving at 7am... Grr.

I'm heading to Wicker Park afterwards, since the site I co-founded/run, Gapers Block is having our monthly get togethers/get your drink on:

Inner Town it is!

It's too bad you guys didn't wait until the actual end of summer to do this. I don't move into town until the 29th.

sounds like we get to do it again, then!

I'll still be hanging out over there the 29th and 30th and looking for stuff to do...

I think most other people will probably be getting back to jobs and stuff, though...

We should plan something for the 17th or the 24th of sept, since the 21st fall in the middle of the work week.

And by "something" I mean we should hang out at a park, drink 40's, and do drunken trackstands and skid competitions

There's something I haven't done enough of lately. If this happens I'm in.

lets do this. i vote the 24th. i'm at a wedding with my lady the other date.

I am unfamiliar with Chicago parks. Someone pick a park with a decent amount of greenery but also some good stretches of concrete.

I'd compete in skid competitions but I can't hold a track stand for ****.

I was going to go to this but I'm painting my bike that night. It's going to RAWK

Painting? Man, I thought it already looked good. You better do a decent job.
If you ask me, come out and ride and then paint your bike the next day. The bike will still be there.

Go out, and put tons of scratches and dents in your paintjob, then paint it the next day... You guys should have a derby, too!

I'm going to try to make it by 11:30. Catch the last set. I'll be the one in the Postal Jersey (i'm not kidding).

It's looks too good, that's the problem. I'm moving on August 31 or September 1, and the place I'm moving to doesn't have a convenient place to paint (the one I'm in now has an empty garage). So if I don't start doing this soon, I may not get the job done in time!

would i be too uncool to go? otherwise im in...
