Post by Kyle »

Back in time for the Pats game at 1:00. All welcome, no one gets dropped. We all need to take advantage of the warm temps.

Who's in????

I'm in. Riding the CX bike, so no hammering please. Meet at the West Acton coffee shop (a post ride bacon/cheddar/potato muffin & coffee would hit the spot)?

A Google search shows no such place. I was trying to decide if it was worth the drive.

Michael, I also can't find where the West Acton Coffee Shop is located, but if you want to ride and we still haven't figured out where the ride starts, give me a call. (Haven't been on the bike in 3 or 4 weeks, so I'll be taking it pretty easy.)

Bruce, Ian: Would either of you guys be riding to Acton?

Bruce, Meet us at the now called "Sweet Bites" cafe located across from the Exxon/Mobil in West Acton. If you Mapquest the West Acton library it will bring you there. See you at 11:00. -Kyle

I could ride over, but we'd have to leave very soon, so post up if you're interested in doing that. Otherwise I'll be driving in the interest of time. Michael, I'll bring that deraileur.

Ian, also in the interest of time, and because I need to take it very easy, I think I'll just do a loop starting from home. Probably 1.25-1.5 hours. Pretty sure I'll be meeting up with Bruce for that between 10:45 and 11:00. If interested, please post or call.

I got caught up doing things at home and never checked back for directions.

Ian, I'll get that der. from you sometime. Alan, I'll get that crankset to you too.
How about a beer at JH sometime in the next couple of days?

too wet for a group ride today. being fat and out of shape I would have been eating too much sand and salt. the next two days look good. I did get out to do the Nboro, Berlin, Bolton, Clinton, Boylston thing and the roads were wet but finally free of debris. I am flexible on start time and somewhat on location. wouldn't mind 10ish with burger and beer after. who else is slacking this week?

Michael, I don't need the cranks anymore, since I scored some from Ian in trade for some liquid refreshments. But I might be able to meet at JHBH's anyway, just for fun. We can talk about using a 9-speed Shimano shifter with my old Campy rear derailleur that came with my ancient 8-speed setup.
