If i had any idea that there were more folks coming, i would have made sure to have stuck with the original plan. I hate people who snake off and leave others stranded, so i certainly wouldn't have done it to someone else, intentionally. I'm sorry that we did that to you.

If you're ever in town again for a ride, i'll sure as hell be at the right place at the right time, so it doesn't happen again.

Any chance you'll be around this coming weekend? A few of us may want to go out again. Sunday looks like it may be okay, weather-wise.

Eroick · 2006-03-28, 04:44 PM

he told me, but I guess that I forgot when I said that I would be sick at 6am with a headache. Im sorry, it was without a doubt my fault. Ill make sure to have some more organization next time, and Ill be there too!

Im home today but almost fully recovered. Im riding around inside on the old norco

If it's on Sunday's the earliest I can ever make it is 1:30->2:00... Saturdays I'm flexible. It would be good if we meet at someone's house or figure a way that the out of towners could get hold of someone...(cell phone's aren't always heard) or make it that when plans are to meet back somewhere not to change them.

hecklar · 2006-03-29, 05:28 AM

I'm up for anything. I liv downtown, so as long as it's down here, i'm available to meet at any time. Just let me know.

My suggestion, if Victory's earliest time is 1:30, is that we meet closer to that time. It'll be a bit of a drag if everyone else is already tired, and he just arrives. My 2c, anyway.

ntappin · 2006-03-29, 01:55 PM

Yeah I agree, because even if he had made it up with us at 1:30 we were already winding down.

So why don't we say we meet at 1:30 at city hall again? or would another area be more preferable, maybe somewhere with better parking or something? I don't drive so I don't know where this would be but whatever works.

So drive or take the bus to TO. There are all sorts of riders there. There are even clubs and meetings there.

And it isn't like we ride together that much anyway. 90% of the time that i go out, i'm by myself, even though Ryan livs like 10 blocks away. Last weekend was probably the 3rd time that i've been involved with a group ride in 2.5 years. It's better to ride with other folks, but i'm fine on my own too.

You're always welcome to come ride with us though.

----------------------

OK, let's make the ride scheduled for 1:30, and we'll try to stick around the area until 2, just in case Victory is a little late. I think that City Hall is a decent place to meet too. It's wide open, so that even if we get a little bored of waiting and want to piss around on the surrounding stairs, ledges, whatever, we are still in sight of everyone else. I guess it's up to Victory and his parking limitations though. What do you say, Victory?

trials_uni · 2006-03-29, 09:42 PM

if i find myself in ottowa some time ill look ya up

Sounds good to me. Parking shouldn't be a problem cause even if I'm a few blocks away I'll just ride over on my uni...

FYI, there is a photo spread in today's Ottawa Sun from last weekend's ride. I'll try and scan it in and post the pictures today.

As far as a ride this weekend I wish I could join you, but I'll be busy all weekend. I believe the Roth's and Devon are also out of town.

'till next time,

J

Eroick · 2006-03-31, 11:36 PM

Ok, im in this sunday, 1:30.

Mr. Dawson · 2006-03-31, 11:54 PM

Hmm... sorry i might have overacted, infact i did overeact.

Not to sure yet if i can make it this weekend. I'll probably know last minute about saturday night. So i'll tell you guys then wether or not i can make it.

ntappin · 2006-04-01, 01:07 AM

I will be there, hopefully I won't be sore anymore and my ankle will be functioning, otherwise I guess I will just have to let myself heal in the two days afterwards

Just a little friendly reminder that it might be a good idea for everyone to bring water this time. Charlie and I didn't bring any and we really regretted it.

I will have my bike tool, swiss army knife, tire levers, and adjustable wrench with me but if you want a good screw driver or a tire repair kit or something then you sould bring your own.
