Oh, dammm dammmm dammmm!
With all the melodrama in my life I REALLY need a good bike ride, but I'll be dealing with melodrama tomorrow.
Wanna do it again on Sunday afternoon?

Sorry, Knot, that the timing isn't working for you...I know that feeling - of reeeeeally needing a ride...it's just that tomorrow works a bit better for my crazy weekend schedule, but I might be able to get out for another ride on Sunday; it won't be until late afternoon, though, if at all...

I'll be going out Sunday one way or another. I. Must. Ride. Bike.
Might try figuring a route to work thru Montlake and 19th on Capitol Hill. Have dinner at Jai Thai. Ride home.
Also, there is a very sexy 7-speed-internal-hub retro-looking cruiser (but it's aluminum) at Recycled for $160. It's been there for a few weeks.
I might have to buy it. (Kit and X and Wahine, you know the one!)
Retail therapy, y'know. Then I'd have a city bike I could leave at a rack and not cry if it got F*cked up or stolen.Last edited by KnottedYet; 10-26-2007 at 08:36 PM.

Poopie! Tomorrow is a no go for me too. Dh is working tomorrow and I have to get some stuff together for a potlatch that's happening later that day. However I have already made plans to go riding on Sunday(read Dh is watching the kiddios). Haven't a clue yet where I'm going. Plus ,left to my own devices, it's a given that I'll get lost. But sometimes those turn out to be the interesting rides.

OoOooH!! SGtiger, wanna see if we can do a ride together?
I wanna ride like a madwoman on the BG to Montlake, and then fart around on Capitol Hill, then do the madwoman thing on the BG home.
Unless I go buy that bike from Recycled, then I might have to play with it... maybe AFTER I ride my Surly all over Hellenback."If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson

Why soitenly, Knot. I'd love to ride with you, but you're in charge of navigation for the reason stated above. So does that mean we stopping at Recycled?!! I've never been there, but I keep meaning to go. You know, can never get enough of ogling bikes and bike parts.

If I hit Recycled, it'll be after I drop SKnot off at church. (I'll play hooky... spritually enriching according to the non-teachings of the Unitarian lack-of-faith, so I can get away with it)
I'll buy the bike if it's there and I'm still enamoured of it, then go back to church, do the churchy thing, and pick up SKnot.
Go home, eat some lunch, take him to SKnotDad, then head out for a ride on my Surly; rain or shine.
I have *no problem* visiting Recycled again if you'd like to see it.
Like I said, I wanna ride kinda hard to sweat out the week's demons, then putter around and have fun."If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson
