Anybody up for it? Maybe a little further south this time.

Hey! I was just thinking about this yesterday and wondering if we should get the ball rolling on something. Thanks!
I'd be up for something, too. I can't do this weekend (the 5th), or Christmas weekend, but other weekends work...
For folks new to the Mid-Atlantic scene....
Last year a few of us joined up in Frederick, MD for a holiday celebration brunch. Good time was had by all. Not a bike involved. Just food, drink, and laughs.
Something in the D.C. area this time??

Hopefully, this will go right to page 8, by when the event actually took place!!Last edited by 7rider; 12-02-2009 at 04:28 PM.

I was up in Frederick over the weekend and was also thinking of this. My schedule's unfortunately a bit tight since I'm working every Saturday between now and Christmas, so I'll have to wait and see what day works for everyone else before I commit.
"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

I'd be interested. I'm crazy busy between now and Christmas and have lots to do on weekends, but I think I have some flexibility in my schedule as long as it all gets done in the end.

If it's in Silver Spring, I'd have ideas. Bethesda, we could figure something out easily. Rockville, my knowledge is limited to vegan restaurants and Chipotle so I'm not much help there.

I wish I could join y'all! But it would require an overnight trip and I'm not up for that. Let me know if any of you head down Richmond way and I'll show you around...Have fun.

Nah, you could drive up in the morning, have lunch, visit Proteus, and drive home in the late afternoon. Piece of cake! Originally Posted by tulip

Nah, no reason to rush a visit to Proteus (or lunch with everyone, of course). I'll do it another time.
