Tibaher, get that bike out! The beers in Issaquah following the Preston are always a nice touch for the midweek blues.Quote:

maybe I can go next week... I need to get out and ride
Hey, we gotta grab that beer sometime in Fremont, too.
And after the crappy day I'm having, I can't wait to get on my bike! Work just plain sucks right now :mad:
i'll be there next week too!
bringing the new bike home kinda feels like taking the new GF to meet the parents. i hope everybody likes her!
and we do post ride beer in issaquah? when the hell did that start? not that i'm opposed or anything ;)
one more week, one more week!
Well, I'm not opposed to moving the beer show downtown to an alternate location...that way having 2 is not a far drive from home and you don't feel the 'you're getting very sleepy' chant in your head!Quote:

Great Ride tonight. BC/GS and others, I'll be riding Preston both Wed. and Thur. next week if you'd like to add a second night! (got friends in town and they need to check out them goods!)
dub dub double up!
as of now i'm gonna leave hella early on wed morning to make the wed night ride. unless i'm totally beat i'll be there thursday too. gotta get as much as i can before the 9-5 kicks in.
We'll have to save a can of Red Bull for ya, BC!
So, there still are a large number of PNW mags we have yet to see at Tiger on Wednesdays- so... roll call! Next Wednesday- hope to see a few more there :)
Where were you guys yesterday? i got there at about 6:30-6:45 and i didnt see a group of people so i figured that you guys already took off. So i Tried to catch up wiith yall solo but to no avail. Sorry let you guys down again maybe next time.
Sorry Dex- we were up there- I didn't get into the parking lot until 6:35p (blue subaru outback). I've got an Alpental sticker on the back so should be easier to spot next time.Quote:

Bummed we didn't meet up with you- there was only a small crew of the three of us yesterday. I'll have to make sure to wear my snowbird T next Wednesday. But yeah, we didn't leave until about 7pm from the lot.

bump-o-rama for the new week. who's riding tomorrow?
I'm sooooo there :)

I'll try to make it tomarow(wed) i get off work at 6 in redmond so if im not there dont wait around for me. I'll just try and catch up.
I will be there! Dexter- look for a black Subaru Impreza with a big Smith sticker on the right side. That is my car. Also, Squirrel has a blue outback, BC has a silver outback with ski rack and bike rack on top.....We will all make a concerted effort to look for you because you have been talking about riding for entirely toooooo long! ;)
Schawayness! Can't wait to check out the new bike.Quote:

got a call from what was to be my future employer today. they lost two big contracts in the past three weeks thus they can't hire me anymore.
fuckitty fuck fuck!
in other news i will be staying down in hot as hell, hating every second of it, california for another week and some days. probably return to seattle next friday. so i'll see you all in a few more weeks.
GOD DAMN IT I RELLY WANTED TO COME HOME AND RIDE!!!
Dammit! Hang in there BC. That sucks, but something else will work out down the road. We still got a few more months of Tiger before the white stuff starts falling :DQuote:

GAH!!!! I have a little dilemma....Want to ride tonight, but have a shit ton of stuff to get done. Can't ride tomorrow night because I am having dinner with a friend who will have just finished the bar exam. Will most likely ride on Friday (Squirrel, what is your plan of attack for this weekend????) and one or both days this weekend. Back hurts like hell and I haven't been able to properly stretch in a few days....after this list of excuses, it is up in the air whether I will be in attendance tonight....decisions decisions....
I knew this would happen...
to much on the plate these days. I won't be able to ride tonight.
I will however at least put the nobbies back on this week, and be ready for next week.
hope your back heals up Girlski.
and BC, don't let the man not keeping you down, keep you down!
:)
O.K. good...Tibaher bailing paves the way for me to bail too...Not tonight kids. Am going to stay home, stretch, and get shit done so that I can play this weekend....where in the hell is Squirrel???? Did he EVER return from LA?
Umm, did somebody say my name??? I'm here and ready to go.Quote:

Hey, GS, I've got a bum right foot/ankle and I'm still going so sack up! I soooooo much to do at home, but I'm blowing it off to ride tonight.
As for this weekend, tentative ride plans look like:
Friday - Vancouver (Seymour) or Bellingham - overnight in Vansterdam
Saturday - Squamish AM ; Whistler PM overnight at The W-B
Sunday - Whistler AM ; Blackcomb (skiing PM ;) )
But we're drinking on Thursday if you can make that :p
Well Squirrel, your post just proves that you are more of a man than I am...but that goes without saying. Have an awesome ride tonight. Sorry to bag...in addition, a friend is going through some shit and wants to hang tonight. Chicks before dicks dude...sorry!;)
Might be down for drinks tomorrow night, give me a call...As for next week's ride I just got beta on a singletrack race series that goes off every Wednesday night at South Seatac park. So maybe we ride Preston Tuesday and race Wednesday????? I will check out the site tonight and post a separate thread once I am more informed.
Sooo, judging by your earlier post Girlski, are we proposing to move the weekly after-work ride to Tuesdays :confused:
And I think next week we'll have to bring the camera out to capture all the action. TR coming soon....just in time for me to case it on those two ravines on NW Timber. Oh yeah, you missed the carnage last night- some guy ahead of us crashed on that sharp hairpin before the 'big drop' on Timber. He went up and over the log barrier into start of the ravine- Ouch !!! :eek:
He's okay, but it looked nasty.
i was trailing that guy who fell... he thumped the ground so hard, i felt it on my bike!
fun ride, and a ton of people out there. conditions were really dry and fast, very confidence inspiring. a lot of grip on the roots (for once).
Counds like a fun ride. Preston has been riding dry and fast for the past few weeks...makes those roots freaking bomb-able (a good thing till you hook up on them).
As for when to do rides, I think at least trying this wednesday night thang would be fun...get a group rallied and go wreak some havic. I start classes on Aug 23rd and will be taking night classes so that I can work too (so that I can cram work and school in before it snows). After that I will be riding either mornings or weekends...so demoted! So don't go changing anything for me, but if people are down for a "night at the races" we could change ride night one time.
I might not be able to make it this week as my bike is going in the shop tonight (took a beating on the North Shore). But keep it going! If I can get it fixed by tomorrow, I can be at Tiger on Wednesday- but Tuesday is not an option for me this week.
Yes, WC- I got my ass handed to me, but not by Whistler- Seymour/Deep Cove took care of that on day one :eek: Never been so scared or intimidated on a bike before... Got great pics- will post this week.
Squirrel, I am looking forward to the TR on Whistla....Don't know if I can make it tomorrow night either b/c I am in trial (FINALLY) on Wednesday...am wondering how well received major contusions and head wounds would be by a jury. Wednesday for sure though! Hope the bike repairs well. I have new bike repair stories as well, but too embarassing to post about.
^^ hehe ^^
aww comon' girlski it's a proud story.
and... it just occurred to me that you have a tendency to do this to your most beloved toys. this makes two, let's not find out if the third time is a charm, mmmmK? hehe
and do we ride on tues or wed now? so long as my rack arrives on time (late this week) i'll be there next week fur shur.
WE ride on either Tuesday or Wednesday depending on schedules. It got bumped after 4th of July to Wednesday and has stayed that way since. It is flexible depending on when people can ride. I'm not sure if, since the Tuesday night rides started, BC you have been in attendance. I think you bike was ganked just before we started riding as a group.
thanks :rolleyes:
didn't know if it was always one day or the other at this point. absolutly plan to be there next week and don't want to miss it, thats all!
Sorry guys and gals, I won't be able to make it up to Tiger on Tuesday or on Wednesday this week. Terry and/or John may be up there. If you're riding and still want to meet up with them, PM me and I can get you their cell #'s.
Let's get back on the schedule next Tuesday night 8/10. Tuesday's will work better for me in August. Sound good, kiddies?
That works. I will PM or call you for Terry and John's info. How is the bike? How was the trip...I am anxious to hear about it!
see ya'll next tuesday then!
it's gonna be so good to be home.
^ for BC's return :D
Eagerly awaiting Tuesday night ride- should be bomber with all the recent rain
So stoked to ride! However, there is a slight chance that I won't make it, but that is purely speculative. I have trial on Wednesday and may need to be available by phone Tuesday night to collaborate with my supervising attorney. But my priority is riding and I intend to get my shit done in time.
Rehabit is in- Girlski, gotta get those priorities in line ;)
see ya up there at 6:30
Looking forward to the pics. Seymour always manages to beat my ass when i go up there also:DQuote:

just got back home to seattle.
see you kids at 6:30 with a wired 3k! wooo fuckking hooooo!
Where does everyone meet up? Parking lot? Trailhead? How many show?
Parking lot. We are the Subaru crew- mine is a black Impreza, Squirrel drives a new blue Outback, and BC is in a silver outback with lots of racks on top. We rally up between 6:30 and 6:45 depending on traffic. Usually the group ranges from 3 to 5 people. See you there (I hope!)
