Tuesday Night Ride report

The first burger ride is done. Daly Burger it was. Open til 10pm. Not enough time for the secretary to get there, unfortunately. But he still got to sample a burger. The Uptown claims it's the 3rd best burger in town. Still waiting for the collective FGBC wisdom to emerge. More chili than burger, it would seem, but tasty nonetheless. And a good bun, which is not to be overlooked. Playoff hockey on tv is definitely a nice touch.




Nick's Inn and Rae and Jerry's were put forward as future burger ride possibilities. Other suggestions welcome.

The ride itself got off to a slow start. First day of Kids of Mud, rough childcare transition, sewer issues in NK, and early burger joint closing times all conspired to delay the quality saddle time--post-burger ride to the clubhouse via Ass. park. Still, by the time I got home, I'd put in just a shade under 20kms. Not bad for a night of burgers, beers, and bullshit.



Always nice to arrive at the clubhouse. Crowbar was there again tonight, but didn't hit on us this time. The new patio was tested and the initial reaction is promising.



Not to be lost in all this is the fact that another lap of 'stache cross is in the books. Jonny G finished lap 11 sporting a new look.

that's the beauty of it, isn't it?

In any case, appearances may have had something to do with the fact that this particular rode around on Jonny G's back for an hour or so.

umm . . ., this particular burger.
