Damn, it's WARM out there today. Almost T-shirt weather. It's going to be a great night for fire and beer.

Yes, it's waaaay too nice outside to not ride bikes. High 60's and sunny FTW!

Beer and bikes FTW also!

i can probably ride the soma, the laing'd be closer to my size though. the monkey is here at my work with me right now!

Just went outside.

Yeah, wow, amazing day. Way too nice to do anything but get all hot and sweaty climbing hills. I hadn't been out since 8am but at least my desk has a nice view of some trees and a sidewalk. 2nd best view in the whole office!

I'm in the process of trying to put together some tasty pumpkin cocktail beverage. Any suggestions?

I'll also be playing catch-up, as usual, as class gets out at 7:30. Foo what time and from where are you heading out. Perhaps we can form a search party together.

I have to get down to the Kent East hill, back up here and stop by Seditious Canary's place to finish scanning Bryce's larger pieces of artwork (i only have an 8.5 x 11 scanner and it doesn't stitch well).

I figure I won't be able to put down chase until 9:30 at the earliest. It's a long shot tonight but I'm gonna miss Thursday as well so I'm going to at least give a try at hunting these fools down tonight if it's at all feasible.

It's 62 degrees in hull. The fluorescents are on 24/7. And I just signed my name to a piece of authorising paperwork for the fifty fourth time today.

You people better ride your brains out for me.

Derrick, please PM me at your leisure.

Yep yep yep yep. The Ballard Bridge sucks to ride across solo just as much as I imagined it would. Made it home safe and sound after my contacts giving me shit just after leaving The Monk. Gotta love when they start flapping around in my eyes and being like "you, see stuff? Nah..." What do you yell in that situation? Optical?

only two of us actually pulled off the bonus ride - stumbling monk AND golden gardens.

by the way, derrick if you ever claim to have a "flat" again just because you want to stop and drink beer / eat chicken, i suggest you bring two spare tubes. i'm just saying.

my monitor is very bright this morning. I feel dehydrated.

Point83 is like forced introspection and reflection: after ever ride, I frequently say to myself: "What is it that caused you to do that? Why?"

Strangely enough, I am not dehydrated this morning. May be the first pointythree ride ever that has not resulted in a hangover for me. (ok, that's not true, but it's a rare occurrence...)

I feel like I haven't been out in forever! Tonight would have been awesome, but I had to stay in and work on my costume.

When you see how awesome it is; you will understand.
