Benefit Bike Race 12/6. Sounds like it may be a good time to bring out the cargo bikes. I've heard that it will finish someplace warm and dry.

Pretty clever idea for race checkpoints, and it's for charity, so how can you go wrong?

One word: motorcycles. The flyer clearly shows a racer on a motorcycle. I'll be there, and I'll definitely be bringing the XL sized timbuktu bag to be extra charitable (I mean get more training for power!)... But if derrick shows up on his demented little huffy derringer, I'm not racing.

Looks like things are shaping up nicely. And don't forget the "plenty of beer at the finish" That makes everyone a winner. Thanks for putting it together.

I saw you in a car with shannon without bikes. Sorry baby jesus hates you.

The ride was awesome, Rogelio's Seattle Bakfiet was incredible engineering.

As I was one of the last to leave the Boxcar, the DJ pulled me aside by name and thanked me for the .83 crowd showing up, saying that our group made the night one of his best and encouraged us to come back soon.

I think this will result in a disaster. Any time Point83 has a standing invitation somewhere, it usually does.

In good engineering safety comes third; redundancies, such as using two bags of zipties, help save lives and groceries.

Yeah. I recall him saying he knew of .83. I think his name was Easton or something. I keep remembering his name in like 7 hour intervals. I was trashed at the time, so who knows.

Found some photos of the food drive race:

also, Rogelio's bike:

And someone should probably apologize to Margaret for our behavior at Senor's Moose. Yeah, uh, sorry about that.

.83 and Easton have a long history together. It's nice to know he likes us atm.

It's not like we threw food at her, and besides, I accosted her outside the bathroom and we had a chat, so I think we're covered.

I guess you could say that technically we didn't throw food at her. If we excludes Scott and food excludes chips.

I forgot about the chip, Scott you should go back and sweep for the kind people at Sr. Moose. I love that place.

And you all just helped me look very very popular. And cool. Great.
