if a tree falls in the forest and no one's there to clap with one hand, what does zero times infinity equal?
I think it depends on which infinity.
i'll be out there at around 3:45, 4, doing some lollygagging and mostly just testing the gopro i just received
will be there around 1 to do this AM's center drive workout.
will be there once my tires arrive, probably 2 hours from now, going at a recovering-from-surprise-weekday-binge-drinking-with-old-buddy pace.  properly executed, this pace features all the nauseating aspects of anaerobic activity but without any exertion or sweating
Can't make Floyd race tonight, but will be at the park doing the 30second intervals I missed this morning.  730p GAP for warmup laps then center drive for 8 repeats.  Come join.
David, we all did 10 this morning......
I will be out in the afternoon - shooting for 3 as I'm not expecting to race FBF. But, I may change my mind if the weather holds.

The short list of things I hate:

1. Jim
2. Jim's lies
@Yang "the worst" is slightly less worst  (slightly) in shorter form.
@Dave #96, I'll give you my opinion after doing them tonight.  Planning on meeting up with the FBF race dudes at hotbird afterward.
I'm getting reports of a sick kid from home - looking unlikely :(

Yang, I'll be in the park around the same time. Will look for you. Also planning on some hot bird.

Cool, will probably do 2 warmup laps and then hit center drive to puke up this felafel I'm having for lunch.
Running late, at the park closer to 8.
I only did 9 repeats and almost puked.  These 30sec intervals seem infinitely harder.  We'll see how I feel on Thursday now...
Anyone want to ride tonight? I'm planning a warm-up lap, four TT laps, and cool down. Around 8:00 PM.
I'll try to join for warmup laps, but no TTing for me.
I will be there tonight around that time. :)

Well I felt good tonight though my inexperience in TTing and lack of riding for over a week was evident, lap 1/2 - 19:06, lap 3/4 - 20:08. I'm going to try and get out in the park more with you guys. Have a great night.
Nice job Patrick.  I didn't get out until a quarter to 9 so probably just missed you finishing up.  

I had not one, not two, but three separate wheelsuckers during a very short, very casual 5 lap ride.  They all cat6ed me at the end of their tenures as leeches and "attacked", leaving me gnashing my teeth and wilting in defeat.
@David , i had the same thing happen to me last week. i was finishing up a ride up PP hill and suddenly a CRCA guy i knew was riding behind me blasts up and out of the park... at a stop light he turns and says "sorry dude, i wasnt trying to race you". Didnt know whether to believe him or not but just accepted his apology....

Anyway, ill try to be out again tonight for center drive intervals.
Will try to be there at around 8...looking like I may actually make it out of work in time today.  Just hope it's not too wet.
Nope, streets are flooded. Indoor trainer time...
ill be there around 6. fast warm up lap and then center drive intervals i didnt do yesterday. i did manage to get my bike to retain about a gallon of water though... a new PR!
Will be out there from 3 for some (very) slow post-New Orleans recovery laps. Come get drunk on my sweat.

Wait, do recovery "laps" mean actual licking? I may be in -- what were you drinking?
it'll be a mix of whisky, margaritas and jagermeister.  a tasty mixer, no doubt. 
Oof, just started raining here in Manhattan.  Hope you dudes didn't get caught up in it.
i wonder if mark is out there right now.  random pouring rain and lightning.


Jinx.  You owe me a coke, Rigby.
