Tomorrow night. Meet on Sabo Bridge at 8:00, roll no later than 8:10. Route TBD, but it will head toward St. Paul and involve a sprint and a hill or two. ~30 miles.

Pace will be brisk but nothing insane (unless you come and want to make it insane).

Holler.

Can't go due to wife's extreme pregnantness, but depending on timing, routing, and weather a fire and beer at my place is a possibility. Call me if you're interested.

This ride can certainly make its way toward the Como 'hood for a fine, hand crafted beer- after hills and sprints, of course. And since nobody ever joins my rides you won't have to worry about entertaining a huge crowd.
:mrgreen:

Cool. Just gimme a call if y'all are heading this way, and lemme know before 9:30 or so. Should be fine as long as my daughter doesn't decide to make her grand entrance by tomorrow night.

People should come on kn's ride. Very few things are as fun as riding in Shelbyville after dark.

If he's not working, I bet Takumar would like a piece of this action...

This ride is specifically designed to lure Takumar.

Speed, sprints, hills, and an invite to ease the pain with good beer. What's not to like?

That orange blob is headed right for us. I think I'll cancel on the ride tonight. Cold, windy, and raining is about my least favorite riding weather. I know many of you were eager to join this ride, but don't be too disappointed. It will happen again.

Definitely didn't get this in time. Showed up at 7:55, waited until 8:10, cried all the way home. :sad:

Sorry, dude. I told myself I would still ride as long as it wasn't raining when I left. I was all geared up and ready to go, and of course it started to rain.

kn_mpls: if you think of it, could you Facebook or PM me on Bike Love the next time you do a ride like this? I'm just not on here enough to catch these in time. And you know I love rides like these :)
