You have my number, give me a call when you want to meet up...

Peace Pagoda, yes, yes. Sushi!

Yeah man, you want to meet me at my place early and we can ride over there and get some sushi before the ride?

Unless everyone wants to get sushi before the ride. In which case we can meet at the Peace Pagoda then gang-lock our ish and head to the sushi boat...

sushi & sake @ 10:30am....jeez you guys are hardcore...i'm off @ 1pm you guys still going to be around....

btw judah, leave 3/11 open on your calendar, some friends of mine are throwing a party over at the blue cube...will be a great time for you to come and meet everyone...i'm taking saturday 3/12 off work...since the party goes from 8p-4am....

Excellent. 3/11 I will be there.

We'll be around. I'll message you my phone number and you can call me when you get into the city and we can meet up somewhere...

Maybe just the sake at 10:30.

**********Hellyer Update**********

Mark, the instructor for tomorrow's session, is going to call me tomorrow morning in the event that the track will be open, he lives in SF so he'll call me before he leaves, leaving us enough time to drive down there as well. If you want me to give you a call if the track is open tomorrow, message me your phone number and I'll call you after he calls me. I will have space in my car for two other people, but no bikes.

If we end up going down, I'll post about it in this thread. If the track is closed then we can all meet up at the Peace Pagoda in J-town @ 10:30 and ride a bit then maybe hit a bar or two...

Sounds good... I'll PM you my number. Are you going to be assuming the role of organizer?

Yeah, I am not going to be there regardless.

Heading back to North Dakota to visit/regroup tomorrow.

I'll have to build up some snow berms in my parent's front yard and pretend it's a drome.

Hey, the track *will* be open today. I am leaving shortly...

Damn, I was all ready to go then I get the "but I thought we're going to get the bunkbed for the kids" even though Hellyer's been on the family calendar for 3 weeks. Trumped again. Have fun and report back. Bring a digicam if you can.

I had to make a decision last night because of work, guessed wrong on the rain, so...will anyone be riding in the city today?

i had to call my manager and tell him to forget about my not coming in this morning....once the rain started that is.....maybe it's not rainning in the southbay though....

i always get trumped as well, and i'm not married...good to hear i'm not the only one

We had a good time. A nice 40 lap warm-up, then break-aways, scratch, and three man pursuit racing.

Took these while waiting for the track to dry:

looks fun. i gotta go. no ride was to be had up here due to rain, all day. good call on making the trip.

Who all ended up going? How were the rental bikes?

Fixedpip, me and a few other random people who showed up. The rental bikes were nice, pip got a nice old school raleigh track, someone else got a walker with a wishbone rear-end.

The CA state sprint champ showed up and rode with us.

40 lap warm up? that sounds like a hell of a warm up!
were you dog-ass tired by the end of the class? was it an acual "class"?

I'm sorry I didn't go, but I'm glad you did.
this week has taught me one thing: weather.com is ******** bullsh*t. At least if you live in the bay area. f them.

got any more pics?

Speaking of Walker, did Darian build his or sell it?

40 laps is only 8 miles, I wasn't that tired after the session.

Darian's walker is sitting in my garage waiting for me to build it

Was a good time. I about killed myself spinning out doing the sprints tho...

Is anyone thinking of going this Saturday? It is definately a serious consideration for me.

I this the velo down in palo alto. You can rent bikes there?

How much does this cost?

It's in south san jose, you can rent bikes there, and the cost is: $5 parking, $5 bike rental, $5 track usage. 8:30am to ~noon beginners sessions...

Do you have means of getting there? I would be into going but don't have a car...
