Nice Meeting you this morning Greg.

It was nice meeting you too culimerc.

Maybe next week you’ll join us for the Arlington loop or hills before coffee, and I’ll join you at FMCC I?

[GB]

Anyone interested in joining me for the Arlington loop starting at 6am at the Italian Store, and finishing at FMCC I or II at 7:15ish? Temps in the 40s with no rain.

Venue has changed to the N. Arlington hills, meeting time and location (6:00 am and the Italian Store on rt.29) remain the same.

Thanks for the great ride.

Big FMCC II turn out today and the pre-coffee ride group is growing too.

Thanks everyone for a great ride around the Loop. Sorry I forgot to post here yesterday to invite everyone else.

Just so everyone knows, I think this is getting close to being a standing ride. Meeting at Java Shack at 6, doing the Loop counter clockwise, and return to the Shack around 7:15. (That puts us at the Custis / W&OD intersection around 6:20 if that’s a better meetup spot for you). (The counter clockwise direction means we’re at the Key Bridge around 7 for those headed to FMCC I).

We’re doing a pre-coffee / CX warm-up ride tomorrow. Meeting at Java Shack at 6, then do the loop counterclockwise (putting us at the W&OD / Custis intersection at ~6:20/25ish. The group will probably split at HDCC, and then split again at gravely point (with some staying for the CX racing).

Hope to you can join us.

Not sure I’d go so far as to call it “racing” In my case it will be more like “flailing quickly”

Late night reminder for loop ride tomorrow morning 6am from Java Shack, 6:20ish from W&OD / Custis intersection with appearances at CX “event” at GP park around 7.

Sorry we missed you. We had a guy go down right at the start so that delayed us a couple of minutes from normal. If you get to the Custis intersection before 6:15 it’s a pretty safe bet we won’t have rolled through and you could turn up Custis and ride towards Ballston. We should be fairly easy to identify, generally 3 to 4 people going west; winter jerseys are red, red, red, neon yellow (that’s me).

Yes, “Guy” did indeed go down, all of 10′ from his front door. It ruled.

I think it was I that ended up missing you. Took the real short bike ride today (to the metro) maybe next week!

Same deal as normal, we’ll meet at JavaShack at 6 am, but after that our second rally point is the Italian Store on Rt. 29 at 6:10, then off into the N. Arlington hills. When we do this ride we’re generally back to the WOD in Falls Church just before 7. Then we’ll bike back to JavaShack for coffee at 7:15ish.

Pace is social.

Hope you can join us.
