Or just come to a Thursday night ride!

I am down with a shafer meetup and I got t the rides occasionally.

Mine back in the summer. Setup is a little different now, handlebar tape for starters, different stem and a brake, since I'm doing more long distance stuff with it. I graduated in May so I haven't been to campus either recently or frequently. It's one of the IRO Group Purchases.

how many mm's was the stem in that picture? looks longer than my 120mm mutant that im starting to dislike


oh and i go to sarge not vcu but once my handlebars and saddle come in ill be riding a blue BFSSFG iro which ill get pics of sooner or later. right now i ride a ratty old 70s motobecane or my bmx

I think it was 130 or 140 mm. Too long for my arms, but it looked good. It would cause a weird stitch in my back right below my right shoulder even on the shortest of rides. Fortunately a shorter stem cured that.

photoshop FTW

yes, i live in rhoads, thanks for the compliment

the thursday night rides meet at 10 and start 30 minutes later

that merckx is so beautiful, and it needs a better home, i vote you sage

art majors, whoop whoop!

i like that bfssfg build, minus teh stem, but im just a hater of those stems

How many miles are the thursday rides, generally?

The only one I went on, we went to UofR and back. So that was probably 15 miles? We started out with a lot of people, seemed like it was close to 60-70 people, but probably only 25-30 did the whole ride.

they have been a lot shorter recently
but if more people came, it would be longer probably

UR and back is much shorter than 15 miles. Compass to 3 Chopt by way of Grove and back is only 8 miles. The compass to Boulevard is only 1 1/4 miles.

i've really been meaning to make it up to fist city and do some riding around.

all good. until then i'll just keep doing my tour de warwick blvd.

from the compass to my apartment (corner of stuart and thompson) it's 2.2 miles.

Since my bike really isn't that memorable, and since most of you seem to be in Rhoads/Brandt, I'm the kid with the neon orange chrome bag.

I've seen you!

I have the chrome bag with the checkers (surprise) painted on it.

I can't quite remember a Chrome with checkers.... where did you see me?

I have seen you straws, cause I had remembered seeing your bag on this forum and then it showed up in real life haha. BTW I don't live in the dorms, Cary st. FTW!

hey guys i dont have a chrome bag, can we still be internet friends?

and to whoever cruises warwick blvd i feel sorry for you

CNU is the highlight of your rides

lameeeee
i used to live in Newport News, bummer

You think NN is bad, try living in Williamsburg.
Everyone drives like an *******. It's also incredibly ****ing boring. There are a lot of cyclists though.

I've seen you walk past the commons. Must have been on a MWF because those are the days I'm there, around 1-2pm.

It's orange with red, right?

Nope. Orange with white. I'm hardly ever in the commons...only when I'm getting Chick-fil-a.
I'm an art kid, so I'm down at the Bowe Street parking deck most days.

ah, freshman doing AFO at bowe street?

Sadly. I'm glad this semester's almost over. I have my two easy studio classes next semester.
And I get my Kilo for Christmas!
