I think I'm the only one that got dumped on, so...

One thing, I meant to mention this earlier but forgot: it looked like your headlight was out during the ride.
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Weird -- it's working now. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks.

Yep, great ride! Brett and I found a few good roads after lunch. We also found some gawdawful roads. And, yes, our bikes got a good washing somewhere between Quantico and Alexandria.

Insult to injury: power has been out since I got home. FML.

Welcome, Colin. Keep an eye on this thread for organized group rides. Also keep an eye out for weekly meetups.

What's the deal with the weather forecast? Perfect until the weekend comes?   [bang]

I am definitely feeling sick tomorrow. Heading to Seneca Rocks.

Meeting at a local (Arl/Alex) coffee shop at 8:30-8:45. Kickstands up at 9:00. Plan for 320+ miles at a pace hovering around 15-25 over. Based on recent adventures, the route translates into ~7 hours of riding with ~2 hours of break, putting us back in town at 6:00.

The first 45 miles and the last 75 miles will be slab, unfortunately. It's unavoidable given how far west we'll push. The rest is a mix of the most fun/curvy/challenging roads in a days reach of DC, sprinkled with some scenic connector roads.

I want to limit the number of pilots to keep things nimble, and already have a +1. Send me a PM if you're in and I'll tell you where to meet. Ideally you have a hydropack.

Knowing how Brian's planned routes go, I think he meant by 6 AM. [cheeky]
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

Guys... I've changed my ways! I really, really mean it when I say we'll be back in town by 6:00 PM.

And bring a tent and matches. You know... just in case.

I'll be wishing you a safe ride tomorrow while calling you a SOB and wishing I was able to play too.
