Thursday NIGHT Urban Roadie Ride
For all your roadies or fast types who missed this ride the first go-round, here's your chance to do it again:
That's right, Daniel is leading a fast-paced ride next Thursday, meeting at Epoch around 7pm and then heading out on a ~20 mile course through the west side of town, up Mt. Bonnell, and back to the starting point. Check the map if you want to know what you're in for, but if you've been on a full moon cruise before then it's probably nothing new, only difference is this time it happens FASTER!
One thing Daniel wanted to stress was self sufficiency. I dunno, I thought being prepared was a Boy Scout thing but I guess it carries over into the do-gooder type of cyclists too.
let's be self-sufficient out there on the road, people. Remember to bring your tire levers, spare tube, CO2, multi-tool, compass, survival knife, signal flares, mosquito netting, and anything else you might need.
There it is, straight from the ride leaders' mouth.
and i feel cheated just knowing that it wont be going up to the top of bonnell :P in fact it cuts out right before it gets good...just thinking about that hill brings back memories of shattered teeth and bloody jerseys :)
jason if thats not enough of a clue as to who this is then i dont know what to say hahaha
well im gonna come just so i can see what kind of "pace" is considered fast these days...
ps:i love you jason :P
less gears more beers
is this the same daniel that challenged me to a race but never showed? I think he goes by Dannielle now.
fixed gears are like butt holes, every one has one.
I was the "girl on hybrid" and probably the slowest of the group, but I think that was partially because I was already worn out for the day (and not just out of shape). Hopefully this week will go better, but it was fun - it's a good ride, and there are only 2-3 places where the hills truly suck (if you lack toe cages or clip-shoes). I felt really good and slept nicely after the ride anyway, and that's worth something.
not him...every time he sees someone that knows me he feels the need to remind them of how he's "faster than [me],"
...i don't know why he keeps bringing me up in conversations

That doesn't suprise me in the least! Daniel's a swell guy but his personality and oneupmanship can be somewhat abrasive at times. Sometimes I wonder if it's possible for him to have fun at an event where someone's not winning or it doesn't effect his race stats...
Maybe he's got a crush on you? Who is this btw? I don't recognize the username.
Hell, bring a couple friends, show up on the ride and drop HIM! You've got the map and a cue sheet shouldn't be too hard to generate from it so go crazy. Then you can brag to all his buddies that you kicked his ass on his own ride, if you wanted to stoop to that level. ;)
wait just for clarification which daniel is this that is organizing this particular ride?
