so far I am still in. I am taking the girl out to a movie date (the incredibles at 2pm) so I should be back in time for the ride. If I am not there it means I said something dumb and she murdered me. If I am dead, I guess my bike is up for grabs.

for all you philly people who missed fridays ride, here is how it all went down.
there were about 6 of us riding
Will_Travel
Legalize it
Legalize its girlfriend (Ms. It?)
Peter (sorry I dont know your Forum Name Yet)
Nocoins (me)
another guy whos name I forgot but he was really nice (damn I am so forgetful with names)
It was a good 1.5 hour ride. Went through the city but ended up on Walnut and Chestnut streets a few times. No one got hurt and everyone was really nice and chill.
We ended the ride at McGlinchys and went in for some cheap beer (and soda) and just hung out. Mr. and Mrs. Legalize Its housemate came (Jason?... again with the friggin names...sheesh) and gave us all free food (which is always good... some of it was fruits and sandwiches [sorry Fruit, you missed the free food]). Overall it was a great ride, I love meeting more riders in philly, especially with the winter coming and less people being on the roads, its nice to see some of the same people over and over again. I look forward to seeing everyone again and possibly hitting you all with snowballs while I am riding. Thanks again Will_Travel for putting these together. I cant wait for the next one.
Another thing, after our conversation at the bar, I think I am going to organize another Alleycat for this spring.... or maybe a winter alleycat? hmmm..... anyway, i think it will be a fun project.

That was me. I forget everyone's names about 3.5 seconds after I hear them. The ride was a lot of fun and the weather was great.
