After the gig last night, I beat the rest of the cast (who were driving cars) to the bar. Mashing up to the top of Beacon St at the end was fun on Schwinnie's fixed 52-16. The wife just went out of town, so today before the show, I think I'll take the MTB and the pooch to Blue Hills and run him silly.

The conversation last night went something like this:

Me: Where are we going?
Soprano: The Publick House.
Me: Cool, I'll see you there.
Soprano: How long will that take you?
Me: About 20 minutes.
Soprano: But that's how long it will take us to drive.
Me: I ride fast.
Soprano: Don't you want to leave your bike here and I'll drive you there and then home? I have a key to the hall and can drive you here again tomorrow and you can get your bike then.
Me: Nah, it's nice out, and I like to ride.
Soprano: We'll save you a seat.
Me: Nah, I'll probably beat you.
[shocked silence]

Ahh, sopranos.
