NYC - Earthwing RIP Updates

[doxastic]

If anyone wants to have a bearing cleaning party tonight, I'll bring my rock'n rons penis pump..... I mean bearing cleaner. I don't have a lint free rag though. Does anyone? I'll bring it just in case.

[Anton Milioti]

im gonna check if i can go tonite, i need to show mike d my new gloves

[nervous ned]

yeah ton, y'all should come. might be the last non-freezing session till the spring!!

[nervous ned]

wow, i went outside to leave for the RIP and it was pouring rain here in queens. called Jam -- raining in Brooklyn. weather.com said there was a ZERO percent chance of rain for 7pm when I checked it an hour ago, with 20 percent through 10pm.

bummer.

[pyrate]

on my way... see you guys soon...

[doxastic]

Well..... those who didn't go seem to have missed out on the perfect sliding weather. I didn't make it out, but I just talked to Mike and it's siiiiick out there.

Hey, does anyone want to go out to where Jessica's at one day for some steeper hills?

[Jam]

ugh sorry to let the rip down guys..... ugh.

[nervous ned]

me too; i wish i weren't allergic to rain.
blah.

[pyrate]

if yopu erent there then you havent seen teh new "danger zone perelito"
ecxuse bad spelling.
,me drunbk! ahahaha

[nervous ned]

hahaha --- you heading out today, Pyrate???
downpour rain plus 60mph wind gusts = SLIDES!

here's the new poster for the NOVA event in Virginia:



It's now a downhill race PLUS a slide competition! We'll leave Friday night (Nov 17) and try to get to DC by midnight or 1am, hopefully crash in sleeping bags at a warehouse bowl called Fight Club. The event starts at 11am the next morning. It'd be great to have lots of NYC area folks go down as Team Earthwing. I'm driving down, and I think there may be a few other cars/vans going down from NY/CT. We may have to document the whole adventure in video/photos.

[doxastic]

Yeah. Last night was a freak'n waste! I came home cuz I didn't want to get stuck in the rain or stay out late. I ended up staying up till 6:00 am with my roommate playing FIFA. Now I go to work. Now I shoot myself in the face.

But, good news is the flyer for VA is siiiiick and I'm definitely go'n! Ned, we need to hit up some real hills before we go to VA. Maybe we should take a day trip up to Rabid Skunk's neck of CT.

[jessicacorchia]

it was an insane session last night, the rain totally helps you do crazy things. plus we partied till we were dry! at least i thought i was
i must have fallen at somepoint skating in the city after.

[Rabid Skunk]

You definitely should. I know Ned is going to be around here Sunday, so maybe he'll find some good hills there. I'm also looking around here for bigger better hills that I haven't done yet.

Yo Doxastic, I left you a voicemail; looks like i'll drive out to Danbury CT tomorrow (Sunday morning/afternoon), probably w/ Longbord1 if he can make it out. I want to check out the town and grab some lunch, then scout out a crazy road on google that may be fun to cruise called Depot Hill Rd -- it's in the middle of lakes and hills, looks pretty isolated. Kind of a longshot, but we're gonna check it out anyway... there will be some good hills there nearby somewhere.

so yeah, lemme know if anyone wants to take a day trip -- leaving from my house in Woodside around 10:30am and returning around 4pm; a quick little getaway session on a fall day.

[Rabid Skunk]

Ned, do you have any room in your car? I think you might be passing through here to get there, not sure. If not, I'm thinking of skating down to Danbury. Looks like a nice hill, I need to get my speed on.

JBT and myself are both totally in on this road trip! Team Earthwing will be representing in force!

[doxastic]

Damn!!!! I want to go to CT!!!! I have to work every Sunday until 6:00. If we plan it a few more days in advance, I can probably get it off.

[nervous ned]

anybody want to meet up tomorrow night (halloween) for a cruise around the east/west village, maybe another nighttime Broadway run too?
