This is by far the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen.
It's even got super adjustable drops in case you want to run it single speed, I'm sure it would make a great light weight dirt jumper.

It says two four on the top tube. I posted it at 7 o'clock-ish. That is what happens when you type in "24 Bicycle" into Google.
I got this when I typed in 23
What is the Gear Inches on that one?

We should do some *MILES* this week.
Anybody ever been through the tunnel under the Seatac runway? It's 14 miles from Westlake.

I'm in for some miles. It'd be good to stretch 'em out.

I hope somebody has a good map! I am pretty much lost after White Center.
It might be wise to go down Delridge as it is gradual and not as steep of an incline then it rolls to the airport. If we go down along the Duwamish river then it is quite a climb up to Seatac.
I am so excited, this is going to be great!

Looks like a police bike that I saw in a bike history book. Built for the high speed chase.

OK, so is this tunnel a good drinking destination?

Hmm. I was almost counting on a not so long ride in order to get up to green lake to fix the tall bike before tomorrow.. but it's cool.
I might not be out tonight guys. I'm taking off early from work today, so I'll have a few hours to get up to green lake, fix up Marge, ride her to Queen Anne, extange her for the fixie and meet you all down town. Totally doable, but I'll be rushed.

We probably don't want to actually hang out in the tunnel for a long time, but there are some cool bars, parks, and lakes in the immediate area.

i'm down for miles. i'll be taking public transit over from the eastsizzide tonight, so if someone who knows buses better than i do could possibly let me know how to, say, catch a bus across i-90 at the end of the night i'd appreciate it.

I'm down with mileage - even with the dang wind and rain that are expected. I almost brought my wool sweater but I looked like YETI and about 200 lbs heavier. Decided on some other clothes and hope I won't freeze my arse off for that decision.
Torch... I am coming and I could drop you off more on the eastside if we could figure it out. :)

molly, you just became my own personal hero. i have no car tonight, so if we could carpool over to the "westside" that would absolutely rule. RULE.
i live and work in downtown bellevue, but if there's somewhere else i could meet you, just lemme know. feel free to call me at work - 425-454-3084, x.3307.

hmmm ok... boss will be in soon. I can call you around my lunch time. It will be around 1 or 2 or so.
I am coming from Issi so however easy and fast we can make it will be best. :) I was going to meet Jill at Recycled Cycles around 6. :) I leave work around 4:45 (by the time I get off work at 4:30 and get dressed).

rock. prolly easiest to go across 520 if we'll be meeting jill in the u-district. i'm right off of bellevue way just south of 520, so i can meet you anywhere along that stretch, or anywhere else that's easier for you depending on whichever way you'd be coming (south kirkland park & ride is easy, too).
i've got a lunch meeting today and may not be back until about 1:30 or so, but if i'm not back you can leave me a voice mail and i'll get back to you. ROCK!

I'd love one of each! I'll bring you a 22 of fat tire and maybe one of those fat tire cruisers that they have in QFC's.

I'm all for maps, but this is actually a really easy route. Delridge becomes 16th, 16th becomes Ambaum, Ambaum becomes 188th, 188th goes under the runway. There's one place where it's easy to leave Ambaum by accident, but other than that it's just "get on Delridge and go south".
