2008-03-15 Sat - Monopoly Night Ride

Hi, still quite new on here.
Hoping to make it to the ride tomorrow and will bring 3 more fresh riders along for the fun!
I will be riding a Blue Hillbrick track frame with cinelli drops, and Bek will be the lady on the fixed Alan. Be gentle and say hi... it will be our first social ride!
See you all soon,
Greg

I'm out, costume was going to cost a lot more than I wanted to pay, and friend has just decided to organise all day drinking birthday on same night.

Im gonna second that motion and hope to join you after I finish work at about 10. Im new to this site aswell and it will be my first social ride so if you see a shy bloke on a Swabo Sanchez it would be good to meet you.

I see your weather.com and raise you a metcheck

I've been watching it over the last day or 2 and the serious rain has been getting earlier and earlier, hopefully the worst will have blown through by nine?

^Hopefully, but that makes no sense... rain doesn't stop at 9... I'll subscribe anyway, my brakes don't work in the rain :(

my brake doesn't work at all you'll be fine : )

just an idea anyone who is stuck for a costume
hard hat, high vis vest, white tshirt, jeans

you are a builder who builds hotels and houses (monopoly link)

all available at B&Q

Who cares about a little rain?
Don't worry, we aren't going fast enough to get your bike dirty..

Sounds like this will be a top night, what with after parties and the remnants of Aiden's beer.

I am a fat fsker. Just saying.

But I've got mudguards...

Jeez man, where you been?
