Dayton here. I can get you drunk, but its a looong dark ride back home up 70 ;)

shants 02-21-05 03:30 PM

i'd definitely need to be wasted to do the ride back.

for columbus kids -- is critical mass still going on? i seem to recall it being on mondays, but i don't really remember and haven't heard anything about it recently.

jerrryhazard 02-22-05 06:56 AM

Not really a kid, but I'm in columbus, and act pretty much like a kid...

Critical Mass here, usually the last Friday of the month, but I have not been to one since last summer...

shants 02-22-05 08:43 AM

yeah, i guess i'm not really a kid either -- i call my parents kids if that means anything.

i wish there were some decent, up-to-date information about critical mass.

whereabouts in columbusland are you? i, perhaps not too surprisingly, am in the campus area -- from worthington.

The monday 9:30pm ride stopped going around New Years. I showed up in the snow a couple of times after that but I was the only one. Don't know when it'll start back up again

shants 02-22-05 09:53 AM

at least i wasn't hallucinating when i thought that there was a ride on mondays. it definitely needs to start up again -- it's not that cold outside. are these things organized by anyone or is it just the sort of thing where a few kids decide to go one week and then more start showing up on subsequent occasions?

i am dying to go on a decent ride -- i'm entirely too out of shape right now and need to start building up to do longer rides this summer.

jerrryhazard 02-22-05 10:04 AM

I'm in Victorian Village, near 5th and Neil... I had heard of the Monday night rides, but they always slipped my mind...

heh, out of shape too, and I commute to Hilliard every day ;)..

not organized at all, just sort of whoever shows up, sometimes there's alot sometimes not.

they might have already started back up actually, check out the forums on http://www.columbuscycling.com/ specifically the group rides forum.

I'll try to show up next Monday if I can

jerrryhazard 02-22-05 11:03 AM

I'll do my best as well...

shants 02-22-05 12:38 PM

i'm down -- i'll be there at 9:30.

teadoggg 02-22-05 12:41 PM

hey man, welcome to the forums. I was wondering how long it would take before you would appear here.

I'm going to be in c-bus in a couple weeks. perhaps I'll steal my bro's bike and we can get sloshed/ride around. interested?

too many Blatz, 'boy?

I'll swing down tonight, but i think i'm bringing the road bike and not the fix. If it rains, i'm out. I didn't spend this much on a trainer to ride outside in the cold and wet at night.

yeah, i know i'm a wuss.

brut 03-07-05 03:13 PM

I live in Grandview, and I just started riding fixed a month or so ago. I had the chance to hang out with a bunch of like-minded folks in Chicago a couple weeks ago, so it'd be great to find a group like that here.

Jaco 03-07-05 05:37 PM

Hey, just came across this thread.

If you'd like to I can make some sort of announcement on the site (columbuscycling.com) saying that the Monday night ride is trying to get back together. Let me know, and I'll put something together. I might be able to ride with you guys next Monday (the 14th) let me know when and where. I hate the damn cold though, so I might have to wait until things warm up around here a little bit. Like I said though, I'll help out the publicity side as much as I can.

shants 03-07-05 07:59 PM

this week is crunch week for me with school hogwash, so i cannot come out tonight. Papers and such. I will plan on coming out next Monday (14th) for some riding mayhem.

rutt 03-07-05 09:36 PM

Hey, this is "brut", using my new and improved username. How was the turnout tonight? I had prior commitments, but I definitely want to make it out in the future.

s2sxiii 03-07-05 09:41 PM

i wasn't going, rain and wind. and working on my new tattoo. Let's plan on next week, if it isn't freezing

Jaco 03-08-05 03:29 PM

I'm an uber nerd
