if anything was the theme last week it was awesome people riding around the lake and lame people getting car rides home.
For those keeping track, lame people are: Nick, myself, Thalia, Alex Wetmore, Devin and John MsG.

I bet >half of the club would take a ride home f someone offered you a ride home, to your house (because they are your neighbors) and you had already been up for 19 hours.
Last week was great. This week will be great. What is Ben's new awesome job? I just know it is awesome and in redmond.
edit: and having worked in Redmond for 14 years (this week is my 14 year anniversary here) I can say authoritatively that Redmond is not awesome.

Thanks Lee!
i'm pretty sure you left purely on your own volition - nobody ostracized you. i in fact specifically gave you shit for bailing and said you should come with me. you missed a fantastic ride.

Fair enough, but my ride was fantastic as well. I sat shotgun and drank 2 beers.

Ok, good. I was on the verge of taking this very seriously and personally.

Redmond has good stuff: The ride home via 90 is nice, and if you leave work at 5ish it drops you off at the Whiskey Bar just in time for prefunk.
Congrats on the new job.

Prefunk: Chapel. It seems fitting. And since I'm not riding my bike I could walk there or whatever dead people do.
This is still how we are doing a thing?
I'll be there with a noob and a trailer hitch on my bike.

I'm pretty sure all you listed there belongs to me.
Yeah boy - first time a ride with a proper horn section. Thanks to Langston and Sarah and co for that - it was totally rad.
I need sleep. I'm glad everyone had such a good time.

Fred, I think the cable lock on the trailer is that one that Andrew, Melanie, Christine and I borrowed from you. We put it on the trailer when we were done with it.
Great ride, sorry we missed the band.

Fantastic ride! Many thanks to all for making last night entirely amazing. Special thanks to Lee for trailoring my drunk, broken-biked ass home and Professor Dave for accompanying us the whole way.

Dear Everyone
We put on a funeral ride for the Wreyfords two days ago. We made caskets out if wood, affixed them to huge Haulin Collin trailers borrowed from Prof Dave, pulled the Wreyfords all around Seattle in a drunken rolling Irish wake. Ro brought framed 8x10 pictures that we set up everywhere we went in a sort of bizarre Wreyford shrine. At the end of the night we ended up at Golden Gardens where Langston and several members of the Sounder Band were there performing in a type of New Orleans Second Line jazz funeral - a tuba, two trumpets, a trombone, a snare drum... Others brought their own instruments - Liz brought a flute, Julia brought her violin, Kalen brought his mini accordion thing. I stood on a great stone bench and held service over a bonfire - to celebrate the (obviously blessed) lives of the Wreyfords and to say goodbye and thank you to the fucking fleet of mangled bicycles left in their wake. Prof Dave brought an effigy that we burned... We had a 21 bottle rocket salute as the band played drunken taps, and then we floated the caskets into the sound and set them on fire in a traditional Viking funeral. The Wreyford boys wore suits that probably did not survive the night and when everyone else had drifted off to home in twos and threes, Andy and I sat around the fire and talked through the night, pedaling for home as the smoke over our head turned an imperial violet.
