i have no qualms either way, but a dude and his friend are looking to be back for something on sunday. consensus take it away!

there's no reason not to just ride home sunday morning, or if some of us want to ride home and others want to hop the train the train station in atlantic city is as soon as you get into atlantic city and you're allowed to take bikes on all trains, i think you're allowed a bike on the njtransit buses unless they go on a highway which the ones between philly and ocean city/atlantic city do, so anyone that wants to take the train is more than welcome to and the rest of us could go from there, no big deal wither way, i may be talking too much

I say we bring camping gear, if anyone has one of those huge awnings with the 4 legs, that covers like, 15x15 feet, and bring sleeping bags and stuff and chill under there or something. thatd be so amazing.

we could make a fire and stuff.

so you guys are going this weekend? i am out...

but some nice sunny weekend i really want to do this OUT/N/BACK!

i am trying to talk myslef into some hundred mile mtb rides this summer so i better be able to ride a buck-20, on flat roads, fixed...

alright, so we now know the route, we need to figure out who is going and a time and place to meet, post here if you're going i think jason had said saturday at 10 which sounds good but where are we meeting at ten? post anything else you need here

sorry, guys. something's come up, can't go tomorrow. I suck.
Soyboy, if you still need a rear wheel, let me know and i'll get it to you where ever you guys meet up, or whenever.

so maybe it's just down to me and jason? anyone else? jason you still in it?

so now it's just me, as i don't know the route i guess i'll have to think about it, this sucks...i wish others weren't so ready to drop out, i really was looking foward to this, i might try it alone tomorrow, probabbly bettter, whatever

sorry, i rode out to valley forge with airbud. got soaked and cold.

ps...(for the ones who dropped out and sat at home today) just because it's wet/cold/snowing/whathaveyou, doesn't mean your bike has to stay inside. I honestly hate it when kids try to be down with couriers, but won't sack the **** up when it's ****ty out. look the part. act the part. don't half-ass it. and soyboy. in the future. it'll happen.

i hate riding when it's gross out and i don't have to. sometimes it is fun to ride in the rain. but you have to be in the mood. besides....couriers get paid to ride in ****ty weather. i am curious by what you mean when kids "try to be down with couriers."

ps keep warm and don't go gettin sick jason, winter is supposed to come back with a vengeance. (sp?)

winter is supposed to come back with a vengeance. (sp?)

that's what i hear. i'm stoked. it's about time. haha. i'm nuts.

and i meant (honestly) the kids that look like couriers, intentionally or not, (you know what i mean as far as that goes...) and hang out with couriers (or at least try to) but won't ride on days like today. it just makes me mad to see the difference in quantity of bikes from one day to the next. case in point, the barnes and noble at 18th and walnut. there are always the same 2 fixed gear bikes. everyday. unless it's crappy out. (it's nothing personal, i don't even know who rides those bikes) i guess it's cool to have more spots to lock up when it's raining, at least.

kinda the same but different is/are the kids who want to go riding, and have people to ride with, but won't cause it's crappy out. that gets me too.

Yo, that sounds like a great Saturday. I would have loved to done that, but, alas, I was in a class all day to learn how to have a baby.

What did you think of that ride? I almost died on that one hill, but otherwise, I think that trip is a rather nice ride.

? that one hill? the "wall" is a cakewalk. i didn't that was it. it's steep, but really short. the one in conshohocken that goes from fayette up to ridge pike is way worse. it was easy. worse on the way down than the way up though. as are most hills. fun ride, no matter how you cut it. so how far away are you from fatherhood?

I'm talking about that one on the way back into manayunk, i forget the road name. And yea, I'm talking about the way down. About halfway down, I gave up the thought of maybe having to stop suddenly, and just enjoyed the out of control ride, heh.

And yea, 6 weeks away from fatherhood. I'm sitting at the baby shower now, avoiding the situation by drinking mimosa's and hiding in the room with the computer....
