Weekday evening / night rides

[elissama]

So I start a new job on Monday and will be working 8-5

Wondering who in the North of Boston / S. NH area likes doing night / evening rides as the weather gets better (stays at least mid 50's at night)

I'm always down for destination rides to - icecream, mini-golf, movie, food, (very limited) drinks.

I'm remembering the Richardsons rides from last year and want to get back in on the ice cream and night ride action!

(minus of course the whole thinking my kickstand was down after moving my bike

[Mondo]

im down

[OreoGaborio]

I'm usually home round 3:30 or so & am usually up for a jaunt.

We'll be goin to Bike Night in Lowell this coming Tuesday (the 19th)

[TimD]

Those richardsons runs were good times last year. I'm in, there's a few scattered warm enough nights already.

[Kenn157]

Add me too!

I'm usually home by 4:30-4:40. Damn train is arriving later and later!

[ff36buell]

Considering im one of the lucky few who make their own hours id be down for this. Night riding is kickass anyway.

[elissama]

sounds like we have the start of a halfway decent night posse.

I'm thinking once we get this more organized maybe set up a text and post system... text people on the list and post up the ride a couple hours before hand... worked for richardsons last year.

As soon as I have a bike again (2 weeks tops) I'm down. I'll get the romantic rides going again.

[TimD]

yea I'm a fan of texts, Usually end up seeing ride posts like half an hour after the ride started. And I know we aren't actually going to plan in advance.

[schleppy]

+1 on texts. So much easier/faster.

my vote was for smoke signals or singing strippergrams but yea texts work too...

[lady flyin' low]

what he said....with the love and all! lol

but seriously i work 730-4 so night riding is really my only option too almost all of the riding i did last summer was in the afternoon/night

[lady flyin' low]

[SP GSX-R]

[Sheppo]

I feel all warm and fuzzy now!

[KillBill]

I feel all warm and fuzzy now!

Get a room

[Kenn157]

Get a room

Deathslap! I guess warm and fuzzy was from riding the bike all day!

[Hauptman]

I don't get out of work until 8 (in Marlborough) but I'm always up for late night rides.

I'd be making my way back home by 8-8:30... Hard enough to see a bike during the day let alone at night. Plus the eyes aint what they used to be.

[TimD]

Hey I was early last time remember? You should, it was a once in a lifetime event.

[Jim]

is this too late? i just read this one

Sounds good to me. I miss the romance. And the teakettle that was TJ's bike.

If y'all want to PM me your numbers I'll get a list together and send it out to all the other evening / night North of Boston candidates - that way anyone looking to ride after work one day can send out a mass text so everyone has a chance to go.

Figure we should pick 2-3 possible meeting spots to stick with for most rides so its easy to figure out where people are going.

I vote - Richardsons, Gas Station / rest stop on 128 (romance rides), ????? (maybe a S. NH location to pick up some of the nice backroads through there... don't know if deer will be problematic though)

It will make texting ride info easier b/c people will already know directions.

If anyone has any route ideas / missions (like ride then icecream etc) feel free to post up locations and ideal meeting points.

Wasn't that the time we told you it left at 4 and it really left at 6?
