I don't think we will have a ride today. The weather forecast talks about storms this afternoon.
The minimum number of bikes one should own is three.  The correct number is n+1, where n is the number of bikes currently owned.  This equation may also be re-written as s-1, where s is the number of bikes owned that would result in separation from your partner.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! This is truly the end of an era.  The reign of the Specialized Sequoia Elite is coming to a close :(

1. It sounds cheesy, but since we're losing a couple fellows we should get a team pic with our championship trophy.
2. Logan, you could ride my fixed gear (which I can make single speed) for the few days if you want to. Its a 44x16 which might suck with wind. (well fixed it sucks with a tailwind, single speed it sucks only a little in both directions) It would be like riding a 53x19 or a 39x14. Only front brakes tho.

Ride today at 1:30 (time negotiable, post up).
Out into the wind.
Helmets required.
If I don't hear from anyone I'll go on my own schedule and won't stop by the Union.

If I were you, I would check the weather first. It looks like it's going to rain just as you plan to go.
The minimum number of bikes one should own is three.  The correct number is n+1, where n is the number of bikes currently owned.  This equation may also be re-written as s-1, where s is the number of bikes owned that would result in separation from your partner.

It looked to me like it was going to be worse later in the day, so I was trying to go earlier.

I know man. I wish I could have gone at 9:00am  when the weather was nice, but I had a final in the morning and I have another one at 1:00 :-(

Yeah... rain around 2ish.

Edit: The storm looks like it has more of an easterly flow than anticipated and may end up completely pushing off around 5ish.

Never mind, I already went.

Group ride at 2:00pm leaving from the Union.
About 2 hours, easy ride. We have Church at 4:45, so we need to be on time with departure and return.
Helmets required.
