I am new to this site, so I thought I would say hello and introduce myself. I'm Tim and currently living outside of Chicago, though a week from today I'll be on my way to Seattle, finally!
I'm desperate to find some people to ride with! I'm riding an old Schwinn, converted to a fixed gear.
I'd love to hear what everyone else is riding, as well as more information about the rides you guys do, and well, anything about the bike culture out there!
Super pumped to get out there, and look forward to riding with you guys in the future maybe!

We'd love for you to ride bikes with us!
A few pointers:
1) Come to westlake square at 7:15 on a thursday. This means you. really.
2) Don't touch girls who don't want to be touched
3) Don't be tedious on the internet before we've had a chance to meet you in real life.
4) After we've met you in real life, be as tedious on the internet as you like. That's sorta our thing.
5) Don't listen to Derrick.

Sounds easy enough. I'll definitely be there! If not the first Thursday I'm there, then the following.

This is perhaps the best primer for newbies I've seen. Well done, Joby.

Always listen to Derrick, He would NEVER steer you wrong, just point you in the wrong direction.

Good primer, just one small edit.

I'd recommend coming at 7pm. Why? There will be some people, but a many less people, so it is easier to remember at least a couple of names. The riding starts around 7:30 normally. See you soon.

Agreed, 7:00pm. I find that Ray gives noobs a pretty good introductory speech about .83 in one form or another.

tim, dude, i don't know if you know this, but, every third moon our collective genes align to form a gigantic robotic internet and, well.... suffice it to say you probably won't survive.
all i can say is that rainier drastically improves the amount that survival doesn't matter.
also, bring me some honkers. i haven't had that shit in years.
