Um, are you really sending text messages to twitter during the movie? Isn’t that a big distraction for the people sitting around you?

Nah–between all the waiters and waitresses delivering food and drinks, and because I was sitting at a table with a biking films movie director, a retired professional mountain biker and the owner of a bike shop, everyone was pretty laid back and was having a good time.

Thanks to everyone who came out for the movie and special thanks goes to WABA for doing the majority of the organizing and to Spokes, Etc. for providing some great raffle prizes!
