[Weasel]

Anythings better than that single speed of yours :lol:

[Weasel]

Make sure you beat your lazy mates into coming so we can have a nice crowd lads.

Ladys welcome :wink:

[Carlin]

I'll try to make it, but I'm not 100% sure I can get there yet.

[Rik]

Anythings better than that single speed of yours :lol:
Pfft, rigid singlespeed rules! (until things get rough, that is).

I'll see if I can drag along a couple of bmx'ers, if you guys don't mind :?:

[Weasel]

Yeah no probs

[Weasel]

Im bringing some BMX riders too

But a few more numbers would be good

[Squidly Didly]

99% chance i'll be in. Have you from Techno yet?

[Weasel]

But tomorrows is still a go and the friday night one will have to be about a fortnights time

[kitakishi]

mwah hahahaha

[Squidly Didly]

Hey Weasel. The Manly ferry doesnt arrive into the city till just after 7pm, so wait for me. Should be there around 7:15. cheers matey

[Rik]

Arg! after spending the past 2 evenings working on my bike, it's still not fully operational. I don't think I'll turn up this time, but if I do, it'll be on the pink machine :(

[Squidly Didly]

Pink machine is still a machine. You won't be the one loosing a chain with that set-up!

[Weasel]

Dont matter if your a bit late we will hang around there for a while anyway

[Squidly Didly]

C'ya all there. Catch the 6:30 Ferry Carlin... you've got no excuse!!!

[Techno Destructo]

Ok, ok... I'm slack. It's true. Sorry Weasel, Squid and all the rest I'm so slow with.

But I'M IN! I'll see ya there tonight! Got my gear and bike at work in the city, so sorry Squid... I won't be taking the ferry in with ya... but I'll take it back with ya.

Tonight, I want to get more riding in - meaning... watching the heavies hit up massive stair gaps is cool and all, but let's try to do some more stuff that's accessible to the rest of us. The smaller stairgaps around Hyde Park would be great, plus some terrain I saw around Pyrmont looked good.

C'mon you guys (Rik, you're excused from this for obvious reasons), let's do our own stair gaps!!! Let's do terrain that's our level (or just slightly above that).

[Weasel]

Excellent Techno!

Yeah thats what i was planning to do so no worries there.
Ok its all GO people the weather is good and im all ready to go.

You all know the meeting place and dont worry if your late we will hang around for about 15mins so you can catch up.

Squid i know you might be held up so thats cool.

See you all there people!

[Rik]

Righto, I have 2 hours to rebuild my forks and tweak the bike to the right position.
Let's see how quickly I can do this! Probably see ya's there, I'll be the one covered in grease :P

Oh,and I'm with TD on the idea of trying more reasonable stair gaps to start with ;)

[Weasel]

Que McGuyver music...

[naz]

fuk i missed it fuk

[Rik]

Nice ride guys, I can't wait for the next one.

Now, let's see the pics from it.

[Dicky]

arg i couldn't get there... yeah yeah squid i know...
*sulks in corner*
i'm up for it next week though. jen's at the snow so i've got no excuse.
having done pyrmont bridge last time i was in town, i've now been challenged to wheelie the big coathanger itself...
(wheelies is what Dickys do best... hoohoo hoohoo)

[Squidly Didly]

Dopey Dougy got some pics on his camera b4 it died, so when we find a new power source for it, i'll post some extreemly dodgy pics. I'm dying to see my nose dive :lol:

[Weasel]

Ahhhh i was expecting to see em this morning!

Bugger

[Techno Destructo]

Yeah. It was fun. Sorry Rik. I forgot to say a proper goodbye at the ferry. Ah well.... "Goodbye!"

Squid rips the stair gaps! The one on the other side of the street next time?

[Weasel]

Yeah the other side also with the army of random pedestrians following us too.

I wish those pics were on here already i wanna see how they came out!

[Squidly Didly]

Squid rips the stair gaps!

<<< Sarcasm detector off the scale>>>

[kitakishi]

anychance of doing the next one on a Tuesday night?

KK

[schwing]

T T Tuesday nights yeah yeah.
But Everyone loves Raymond is on! long live the VCR !!

[Weasel]

Where are the pics!!!

Im dying here!
Need photos!

[Squidly Didly]

Finally got a look at the pics and they all sucked. Only 3 photos were BARELY viewable.
1. The group at Cathedral doing absolutely NOTHING!
2. Carlin converting his "Kona Scab" to Single-Speed (1x uprising i tell ya)
3. Weasel's mug being blinded by the flash of the camera at the Botanical Gardens!
If anyone has a decent camera and is up for the next city ride, PLEASE PLEASE let us know. FFARRRRRRKKK. I couldn't find my nose-dive :cry:

[Squidly Didly]

I wanna see me on the stairs!

[Rik]

Sorry Rik. I forgot to say a proper goodbye at the ferry. http://erve.ugbox.net/images/smilies/wavey.gif
Cheers mate! You're starting to scare me, you're too nice and too polite! :P
Anyway, lucky we didn't hang around to say goodbye, I cruised into the station and managed to run up the stairs in time for my train, perfect timing for all of us.

As for pictures, hopefully soon enough I'll have my hands on a decent digicam, and I intend on putting together video clips of all our city riding, as it was said on the night too, we need to show these Melbourne boys what we're capable of 8)

[Squidly Didly]

Hell yes. you gotta show em that stair gaps are possible on rigid pink single speeds! a new challenge

[Rik]

Gaps on the pinkie?
Noooooo!!!!!!!1 I don't wanna dieeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!1

[oz-freerider]

i'm planing on hitting some bigger stair gaps next time on me ht so look out 8)
