growler refill ride

apparently there is a ride on thursday that starts at stell, goes over to the new hanger 24 brewery, goes through a few rounds of beverages, then heads back. Starts at 6 however, i told resident sweet dude/bike guru/sexual tiger ben parks i would wait for him to get off of work to leave, which would be "no sooner than 6:30". Anybody want to join us? My plans include getting ben LOADED and cajoling him into helping me build my new cross rig, and possibly starting a spandex-laden barfight. Whaddaya think?

GSM Produce

http://gsmproduce.com/shop.aspx Here's something to stuff those messenger bags with - Locally grown Organic Produce from the produce stand on Citrus Ave in the Crafton Citrus Region. Mike and I rolled out there today and picked up some tasty organic strawberries and Maui onions. The owners are really cool they sell to Whole Foods in LA, you can get yours straight from the farm right here!

April Recap

For a ride without a whole lot of planning, I think it turned out pretty well.

Had nearly 30 riders, and most seemed to be enjoying the ride.

Nicknames were bestowed, post-ride beverages were consumed. What more can you ask for?

Hard to tell sometimes what people want out of the ride though.

Should it be longer? Do we need to change the route up more? Is it good how it is?
