Subject: Let's get together: Franklin Park Friday 10/24

Anyone interested? Its been a while since we had a midnight bike ride
--some of us are wimpy, and it is now cold out-- so let's just forget the ride and just meet at the after ride spot: Franklin Park in Crown Heights.

http://www.franklinparkbrooklyn.com/

(the recent "Midnight bike ride at 9 PM" only sorta counted). Who is in?

Newbies and lurkers welcome, as always.
Mods are welcome if they pledge to "be nice and follow the rules".

    This little Newbie would be interested. I need to meet some new people!!!

    I'd even do a bike ride before...if there is one. :)

    I can be down for this. I've been neglecting my bike rides lately and feeling super guilty....

    Edit this to say that I don't necessarily want to do a bike ride that night, but the get-together sounds good.

    Warm, schmarm! :lol: I call for frozen bike rides!

    Oh, yeah, and I'll be there on Friday.

    I'm thinking 8:00. I'm thinking we should plan on ordering food from somewhere, because Franklin Park does not have a kitchen.

    Lots of places deliver. Maybe Alfy will want to go to White Castle again for Chicken Rings, but I hope not because despite not liking them, I ate too many chicken rings.

    However, I am not in charge.... watch this space to see if a leader emerges.

    Yeah...I thinks we'll stay away from that white castle. Alafair is a tough cookie, but its a little rough and tumble at that one. :lol:

    THAT"s what I had planned! I knew I had plans for that night but couldn't remember what they were. I'm in! And that includes a ride before or afterwards, or both.

    Wow! Looks like babysitting is going to be booming Friday! Some exciting shit, man, massive bike ride gathering underway!

    poo, I won't be able to make it this friday night.

    like caaah, I'm totally up for some sub-zero rides this winter, though, so maybe next time.

    haha...I don't think most of us have kids.

    Unless you were referring to us adults needing babysitters, then, yes, that's a possibility. :lol:

    Nothing wrong with that. That's why I said "most". hehe.

    Edit: Wait a sec! You're pulling my leg, aren't you? :oops:

    I'm in for the FP part.... though I might be too wimpy for the ride. Depends on the temperature... if I get cold I'll be miserable and that's no fun for me or you!

    I'm in. I braved the cold biking to work yesterday, so I should be up for an evening ride tomorrow.

    Beer.
  • whynot_31
    whynot_31
    ok, are folks up for an evening ride?

    Would said ride occur pre or post drinking?

    My plan was to go to Franklin Park at 8. Drink. Go home at some later hour.

    Bike rider types should make their plans known.
  • whatchuwant

    Yea, I'm on the NOT ride list....I am on the DRINK list!

    We could do a "before" (as this is more likely going to happen) and an "after" (not so much, at least not with the same people).
    I'm in for either or both, and I'll be a definite for a "before" whereas with the 'after" I can't guarantee anything.

    I nominate Christina to be the organizer of any bike ride.

    Depending on the plans that evolve, I predict WCW, AFN, Nomad, Mrs Whynot, and Whynot will state either: "Have a good ride", or "Did you have a good ride?"

    We will make these statements while we wave at you with one hand and hold a beverage with the other.

    I can wave with both hands when I wear my camelbak. Wait...I don't have a camelbak...
