Freezing Saddles Meet and Greet Happy Hour?

[Arlingtonrider]

Would anyone be interested in a Capitol City Shirlington happy hour in January in honor of the 2014 Freezing Saddles participants?

I’d be glad to put one together for the second or third Thursday of January, or we could do something on a weekend. (I spoke to one participant who can’t make the 3rd Thursday but could make the second one.)

I realize not everyone would be able to come, but thought it might be fun to offer a chance for people to meet some of their teammates and others (and get some early milege in!). All would be welcome, including alumni, friends, etc.

Update: The happy hour will be Jan. 2, 2014. More info in later posts on this thread.

One more post on the Jan 2 happy hour – I just wanted to give a shout out of thanks to ShawnoftheDread for picking up and bringing some reflective forum tags and other Bikearlington items to hand out, to RCannon100 for the awesome awards for Secrets of the Universe answers, and, once more, to everyone who came and made it such a fun get-together. I think we had appx. 45 people despite the snowy weather. It was great to see all the family members and others who came along too.

Teams 7 and 9 should get special recognition for having the most team members there (even though people didn’t know they were on the teams until after they arrived). Love the team photo Team 7 posted! I think about a dozen people arrived by bike, including several who rode long distances in the snow. And for those who might have missed seeing who won the award for the most Jan. 1 miles, please check the prizes thread and see what Vicegrip and others accomplished on that day!

Many belated thank you’s to Rcannon, hozn, jrenaut, and Kathy for getting FS off the ground running, err, cycling. If I missed mentioning any of the programmers I greatly apologize; Alzheimer’s. It was wonderful meeting old and new friends.
