There is a way to make that bottle lighter...

That makes your bike lighter. I was thinking more along the lines of drinking what's in the bottle... It would make your body heavier for an hour or two, but that wouldn't last too long. I'm sure it would be feeding plant life by the time the fire died...

Any takers on a 19:30 ride tomorrow? If not, trystero, I can meet you somewhere in St. Paul to make the swap and we can head back to campus together. But there is a problem with the rum; I didn't purchase exactly what I thought I did, so the only 2yr. bottle I had was accidently gifted to my ride from the airport (when you make someone pick you up at 01:45, you better have booze) so I'll be happy to give you a bottle of Cruzan Diamond (5yr) instead. Let me know.

I'll be at the Depot (9th and Sibley St. @ the South end of the Building) at around 7:45. If I don't see anyone by 8:15, I may leave without you. And the more 'spensive rum is fine with me.

I'm assuming that's in St. Paul... I'll hit 29th and 5th and see if anyone's there. The new section of the Greenway is closed (at least as of 11 last night) so towards Uptown is the only option...

Okay, that managed to work out and was a fun ride. Anyone have any thoughts about next Saturday?

Uh, not St. Paul. I'm a little sore today. Maybe two weeks from now.
Rattking wants in on a pre-ride. I think Gilby would be in too. I'll try to scout out a destination of some sort this week...
[edit]
Oops - forgot that my sister in law is having a birthday party next weekend. She's promised that it will be over in time for me to hit the Sat ride, but I don't think I'll make the pre-ride. I'd be down for a weekday night ride sometime this week if anyone is up for it...

Anyone want to do this this week? Seeing as how it's probably going to be steadily dropping in temp over the night, it would probably be good to get some miles in before it gets really frigid...
