I'm starting a new thread instead of adding on to the previous one so that the title can note that there are pictures within for those who have slow internet connections.

Thanks everyone - that was fun.

A few of us had met in person before, but there were new faces for all of us too. I found it very interesting to meet people who I've been chatting with here, and I have to admit that the conversation continued to flow as if we had met each other before. Jodi's (Surlygirl) party planning worked out great with a 3:00 meeting time allowing us to order off of the lunch menu.

Of course we all knew there would be a price to pay if we didn't take photos to share with everyone else, and 3 of us showed up with cameras!

I'll start with a group shot. Sitting (from left to right) is Karen (MassBikeBabe), Jodi (Surlygirl), and Linda (wavedancer). Standing is me, Stacy (SpinSis), Jean (newfsmith), and Robyn.


Jodi did a great job with Karen's birthday present - including a sweatshirt with a drawing representing Karen's "half snow angel"


What do you mean you can't see all of us in that group shot? OK, here are some more shots too!

Stacy & Karen


Jodi & Linda


Jean & Robyn


And thanks to Linda, I even have a photo of myself!


There are a few more photos too. I've stashed them in my Biking with friends, friends with bikes! gallery at http://denise.smugmug.com/gallery/575390 . The gallery also includes a few shots of some of us (even including one of Spazz) from rides last summer. If any of you want prints of your photos, the gallery is set up so you can order them.
