Friday night urban!

[methods]

7pm robson side of the art gallery!

Knee wasnt feeling good last week, but I'm all good for some riding this friday!

And it'll be NICE out.

[Faithless]

friday i am giong to jh, to get my stem, and maybe ride a trail, but ill probably be there at 7 if i make it.


ps how to i get to the art gallery from waterfront?

im not to smart on these situations.

[Trini-dad72]

Just ride up Howe. All the way to Robson, and Voila you're there.

I won't be tho, we'll be in Whistler this weekend.:D

[Oysterboyz]

My friends have convinced me to go do the dance thing once again. They better go to whistler with me on saturday then! Idiots, they really need to step it up a notch when it comes to being out-going. They're actually computer nerds! I know computer geeks that are more outgoing...sometimes I wonder.

[Neo]

i wonder if any of you dorks will show up this time :rolleyes:

anyways, i'm moving this weekend so no go for me.

[adam45]

Hey this Dork was there with 5 other Dorks and we left at ??? time to go north to some really Dorky spots where a Dorky time was had by all.

Actually sorry we missed you. I'll try to get the fellows to rein it in and wait a bit longer.
I'm going for a ride right now, at the gallery by 6:30pm, maybe Adam (the other Adam) will be there riding trials again, come with if you can.
Paul

[Neo]

yea i just missed you guys last week. the skater dude that was there said you took off 5 minutes before i got there. :(

[Faithless]

im coming but i have to lie to my bro :p


dosn't let me bus anywhere.

[methods]

Bit over the top protective wise eh...

See ya there!

[Faithless]

very overprotective, i didn't want to tell him that jh was in north van or else he would shank my balls off.

[SyC cHyLd]

we got a small crew on longboards meeting same time LETS FIGHT. :) enjoy yourselves

[Oysterboyz]

So? I've got a crew of ballroom dancers! The art gallery isn't big enough for all of us. ;)

Damn, if this Friday's thing goes sour, I'm going to quit and go back to urban riding.

[adam45]

Hey i met three more locals at the gallery last night. They might check it out as well.

Major Dork

[Neo]

haha you guys are all dorks. i'll probably be up for an urban sess next friday though, or maybe earlier in the week even. i'll drag dave out too instead of that stupid ball-room dancing thing. :P

[Faithless]

hahah sweet dibs dante, you can show me your "shirtless" urban skills.

[Rosscofat]

hahaha its too hot in the summer for armor or shirts.

[Putty]

[Faithless]

crap jh sold the stem i needed =(

looks like no urbany for me.

you have no stem? i have a really nice used ROOX stem (80mm, black) and bar if you want either or both.

[Faithless]

well what happened, was i went to the midnight madness sale and bout a ea70 which was on sale for 50, then i found out i needed an oversized stem. so on wed i called jh and asked if they had the hussafelt stem in 60 mm, they had 1 left, and there sale was on thursday. but i couldn't go thursday because school ends at 12, and i worked at 3-10. So I was gonna go hop on the bus today, but before I did, i called them and they only have the 80 mm left. and because i was gonna treck down that way (98 b-line to seabus to whatever) its lost hope, because i told my brother i was going to vancouver to buy a part and was gonna hang out a old friend who lives out there.

currently my bike has a stem and handlebars, but the bars are bent, and i need the bike to trek back and forth from work, so i dont wanna risk anything. But right now im actually still considering going, but my brother will probably ask 20 questions and get suspicious and ill get whiped.

[Faithless]

ps, they had it for 40 dollars, and plus i called alot of other shops, and they dont have the size i need (the 60mm which is about a good midsized one)

Yeah, I'm just going because my friends really want me to head out. It's not like they can't go themselves. Oh well...one last night. Maybe it'll actually be fun this time around. And then I really should get back to urban because I miss it so much. Damn women and their hotness...

WTF sounds like your brother needs to be whipped. :mad: why is he so protective?

[Faithless]

i really have no clue. He thinks i am some horrible kid even though he knows i dont drink alcohol or smokey the dubies.

apparently, im banned from bussing to fromme, going to the warped tour, going out past 9 without special permission, sleeping over at peoples houses, and the list goes on and on.

oh yea, and anything involving a bike, he will not even come close too. He thinks theres trails in flat old richmond

pisses me off.

[Neo]

i'll have a talk with him perhaps. show him some big-brother/parent-role skills ;) :P

:lol:

[Neo]

lol, yea Hugo is pretty excited to be moving. he's my co-pilot in the move tomorrow, we're coming over in a moving truck on the 8:30 am ferry. :)

[Bukkake]

Whereabouts in east van you gonna be living?

[Trini-dad72]

Well, I'm bringing this back up.

Dante, I'm glad that you snd your son are all good to go, and that you're on this side of the pond.
Majin, get your brother on a bike, so's we can kick his ass. I'm not even related and he's pissing me off. Seriously, maybe he needs to come and check out what we do, or meet some of us more mature folk...
Friday night Urban is a go for me. After Whistler, I am stoked to ride again. We have errands to run this week, but I'll make it a point to come out. Weather should be good too.

[Faithless]

its funny because my brother thinks im a horrible biker because stuff break on my 96 hammer that i rode pretty hard on. Then when i upgraded my bike about 2 weeks ago (purchesed a mag30, new drivetrain, tires, brake pads, new handlebars) he never in his life believed that a bike just breaks apart. he wouldnt listen to my natural fatigue theory.

but im down this friday. Ill say im working.

sometimes i wished i lived with whistler brother because hes more leniant and understanding.

he use to buy and build bikes in 93-94 (he use to get rm hammers, and build them up all xtr, and stuff)

he was a bike person.

REBEL YOU GOON!

If my brother tried any of that with me I would tell him to go fist himself

[Faithless]

rebelling hurts. and telling him to fuck off hurts too....


dante, come out friday!

im definatelly going down.

[Neo]

yea i'll be out on friday :)

[Oysterboyz]

George is a good guy, if I remember how he was from high school. He's probably just worried sick about you man. Who knows what kind of crazy idiots you'll run into biking. :)

[Neo]

shutup dave. you better come riding this friday instead of picking up dudes at the ballroom dancing gheyness :r: :P

[Oysterboyz]

Yeah, I'll come out. After crankworx, it feels wrong not to go riding.

[Trini-dad72]

^^^ Hahahahahahahahahaha, back into the fold. Not that dancing is wrong, the ladies there are a sight to behold. But riding is better.

[Neo]

lol. well this will be my first urban sess as a local :)

we need some girls to come ride though. its friday night and well, you dorks just don't cut it for me... :(

[Oysterboyz]

This friday is always critical mass earlier in the afternoon/night too...there's going to be lots of people riding downtown

[pete]

whoa big boy. why dont you bring your gf out?

[Neo]

sweet. :thepimp:

hey dave, you should come over to my place and we can ride from here or something. then we can skytrain it back later maybe.

hey justin where do you live?

[Oysterboyz]

I live closer to Joyce station than you do. :) I'm just down the street (around Kingsway) from Joyce station. As long as you don't live DOWN rupert street, all will be fine and yeah, I'll come ride to the station with you.

[Neo]

no, im on 22 ave only like 6 or 7 blocks north of joyce station. hugo and i walked there today.

[Trini-dad72]

Blaine, I live in Surrey. Smack between Surrey Central and King George Skytrain stations. I might drive down tho, and park in Kits and then ride over and meet up. If I don't feel like driving the Van, I'll train it. I don't like to drive all that much really.
As for the ladies bit, it would be nice if some of the women on this board would come out. I know that many of them can hold their own, with us goons.

So ladies, any of you coming?

[Faithless]

haha george is whistler brother, hes the nice one! and is definiately a super nice guy. He's still young, and can sense bullshiet from a mile away.

petros is evil brother. hes just ignorant and stubborn.

ps. unless the ladies like 200 pounds of greek....

[adam45]

Hey I'm looking forward to this ride. Lots of new people to meet (for me anyways). Hope I can Keep up.

See ya

[Trini-dad72]

OK back agian is the incredible, ride animal....

Oh heck screw this:D

So I dropped off my bike at the Caps, cause it was high time to get the SuperT topped up and sorted out. No thanks to Marzocchi for this:mad: I also discovered that the "O" ring seal at the top of the shock body had popped out a little. Caps is going to inspect it and see if the seal was damamged. If not, then cool I MIGHT get my bike back by Friday. If it's pinched, then the shock goes to OGC for reapir. Either way it might not be until next Tues. before I get her back. Grrr. I guess that's what comes with shocker bikes eh... Oh well, if it comes down to it, I guess I can beg Elaine to use her bike. I'll let you all know what happens, and if I'll be up for Friday Night.

[Faithless]

is that why you were in richmond yesterdaY?

[Trini-dad72]

No silly, I go to the Caps in New West. I'd rather burn the Richmond down. Personal reasons...:censored:
We were in Richmond being fruits and bumming around the mall.

[Faithless]

:lol:

[Oysterboyz]

So we riding out on friday or what? :)

[Trini-dad72]

Alright!!! It's on!! I pick up my bike tomorrow. Majin, I'll have the spare helmet too. Everyone lets meet at the usual time. Anywhere between 7pm to 8pm at the Art Gallery...

Same Bat-Time, same Bat-Channel!!!!!

[methods]

YESSAH. I shall be thre... More towards 8 though!

[tomatoz]

[peppergut]

Art gallery is located on top of Robson Square. Robson Square is on Robson Street, downtown. It's across from the Chapters...if you're on skytrain, get off on Burrard and go south

[Trini-dad72]

OK, so any ladies coming or what? Sausage fests suck, and I'd like to meet up with people for Elaine to possibly ride with. She needs the motivation ladies.

[methods]

I'm still a gimp and cant ride very well :(

Should be a really great ride tomorow!
