Just Kidding, but I got your attention right? Call Out disguised as a RR.
The group all appeared to be in agreement on Tues night during the official Pollywood season opener ride that Spawn would craft his ride report from behind the bar. He would then email it to NoCa... err strike that; Chicken Wing who would post the ride.
Almost everyone was willing to do the post themselves, but as no one except Spawn knew where the heck we actually road, it was decided that he would write up the post - by "It was decided" I mean Cappy and I strongly encouraged him to.
OK, no real ride report but how about a call out!
Sat 8:30 AM departure
Knot Lot
Back by Noon.
See ya there
One.

If Mr. Spawn or Mr. Credit would like to send me their email address I will send an invitation to be blog author.
ReplyDeletedavidconrad75@gmail.com is a good way to reach me. Thanks
DeleteDo you want to be part of the FT3 directory? If so, I'll send you an email with instructions. Thanks
DeleteWow, I might actually be able to do this ride! I'll run it by the executive committee before adding my voice to the count, however.
ReplyDeleteOn an unrelated note, I need to express a point of concern. Once, not long ago, I expressed delight at having been given a taco handle. Commenting on my repeated pre-taco departures, a ridemate unwittingly christened me: Partial Credit. I adopted the accidental handle readily, seeing a tenuous connection to my daytime position as an educator. Could I possibly earn - through regular ride attendance and taco sessions - an upgrade to 'full' or even 'extra'?
Well, fellas, here's my thought on it. The handle is no longer relevant. I feel I have proven my mettle and dedication to the cause. I have felt the burn and shown that I am ALL IN. I humbly request a permanent handle worthy of full FT3 status.
Originally, I thought that maybe I was simply too unremarkable, lacked the quirks of character that suggest a unique and distinctive label.
Well, by way of food for thought, here you go:
I'm tall.
I'm an English teacher.
I like to read, but I'm not terribly 'well read'.
One of my mountain bikes has drop bars.
I feed myself (and any takers) with stale Mojos from G.O.
I'm 3 months into a 'dry spell'. Lemonade is my current taco beverage of choice.
Start a conversation with me about the environment or the future of humankind, and you'll see I'm a little 'out there.'
Fun Fact: I once won a car from my local radio station.
I was born and raised in the suburbs of Phoenix, Arizona.
I am spiritual, but not religious.
I believe that humans have neglected our responsibility and forfeit our rightful place as members of a living community.
So, chew on that and see what gets spit out. Maybe I'm shooting myself in the foot here, but I'm ready to retire this now regrettable handle. Have pity. Do as you will. I now wash my hands of the thing.
Taco handles are for remarkable and unremarkable behaviour and rarely change. In fact the only one I can think of was executed by Mother Rye herself when she unknowingly broke NoCar's collar bone and finalized his transition to chicken wing. Think of poor orphan, he has a family and is loved, and yet his handle endure.
ReplyDeleteI'm not one to talk, but then I'm neither remarkable or unremarkable - just handless.
One more thought. If the Mojo bar hand out is a ploy for a new handle such as extra credit, I could get behind that. We need a Loya Jirga for this I think.
DeleteBack channel chat: CMan (a remarkable handle) is in.
ReplyDeleteTwo
Mos Def in fo Sat!
DeleteAnd love the crafty RR call out. Peace!
DeleteBack channel chat: Rock God (very remarkable handle) is in.
ReplyDeleteSo far, no schedule conflicts exist that I am aware of. Therefore: FOUR.
ReplyDeleteMr. Credit, I truly lament not informing you of my own failed attempt to change handles. A little blog research and you would have known my fate, and changed course at once. I don't make the rules, in fact I am obliged to both interpret and enforce them. The handless one has deftly summarized the nature of labels in our culture. I might add that, in time, there will be nick handles. These, too, are not self-assigned, but stem from both remarkable and often unremarkable events. Xteric is also known as XT, Cap'n is also Cappy or Cap'n Cappy, Lars is Our Dear Ride Leader and so forth. Rest easy friend, your turn will come. And then you might wish you had embraced the original...
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Buttons (another remarkable handle) could second that.
DeleteHow about Manny Rolo - any know who's nick handle that is. I know B does
DeleteCould that be our own lord of the stone?
Deletethe raw fooder
DeleteWait! did someone just change their avatar?
DeleteI will have to be out on this remarkable morning ride due to work conflicts. Ya'll enjoy what I'm sure will be remarkable conditions?
ReplyDeleteI'm so out of FT3 shape but that helps me keep my speed under safe limits. A ride sounds like lots of fun!
ReplyDeleteI'm on the fence right now but am planning on being in the area Saturday. I've got a bunch of things to do around town so maybe I could head back a little sooner.
ReplyDeletePC (aka: Extra C), RG (aka Manny), c-man (aka CouncelMan) and my handless are in fo-show. SF is on the maybe schedule. See ya at the lot.
ReplyDeleteSounds like no squito get together, so if I make it, I'll see you at the Knott.
ReplyDeleteI can pick u up Safety. Call me if u need a ride up.
DeleteI'ma be at the skeeter round 'bout 8:00 just in case anyone gets some sense between now and then and want to drive together 'stead of driving up side by side in separate cars, smiling and waving at one another all the way up to Polly. I can fit 1 extra comfortably and 2 if we squeeze.
