impromptu Festivus 2012 ride

Anyone up for a quick little ride today, perhaps culminating in a Soupaneuring stop? Say maybe noon at Friendship Park, and head somewhere for about a half hour ride?


It's early at the moment, so I'm open to any ideas. But the weather is beautiful, nobody has designs on my time, and I want to get my soup run in. It'd be nice to have some company.


And it's Festivus Day! Air those grievances! Show feats of strength!

So far, you're the only person to respond. 11 is pushing it for me; I'd just about have to start out the door right now to hit Oakland by 11. Or maybe just delay your start to 11:30 and meet me in Friendship Park by noon?

Yeah, bumping it to 12 is fine by me too


So far I only have like two maybes myself, so it's no problem


Err, bumping it maybe to 11:30 and then meeting up with you at Friendship at 12

Stu, I'll meet you at Friendship at 12 if you're there, I'll be leaving from the Dino at about 11 and will probably stop around Giant Eagle/Whole Foods in between

Gonna be late for my own bike ride. 11:30 and just getting out of the house. ETA 12:15 at best. Geez, I wish I had a bike rack for the motorcycle sometimes.

Thanks all for coming out! We had a threesome: buffalo buffalo and Pierce. We rode Millvale Ave to Neville to trail. First time I'd ridden the new trail behind American Eagle. A brief stop at Thick (closed ^H^H^H^H^H^H "Gone Riding"), so thence to REI for a headlight.


This was followed by a ride to Beehive for a #soupaneuring entry. Then we parted ways; buffalo buffalo and I continued into downtown.


Nice ride, guys!
