Word. I'll be there too. Possibly on time this time. the promise of hot fresh pretzel should help get me there... plus I'll already be in the city. Great ride on Saturday too BTW!

And let me just go on record as saying i really appreciate the community of late night and cold weather riders. Hopefully the numbers won't drop too far as it gets colder, I'm a glutton for punishment.

Hopefully the weather doesn't deter too many pretzel riders. Weather.com's hourly forecast says the rain should clear up by 9pm, that leaves 3 hours to dry off and then we RIDE!
