Year End Party - Forum Archive

Hubs, Yang, Jules, great party, great eats, great awards, thanks to everyone for a great 2013. Those championship jersey's are freak'n awesome. I'm going to shred it up in 2014 to get me some. Sarah had a lot of fun meeting so many of you tonight and remarked how nice everyone is. And it's true, we're a pretty nice bunch of boys and girls.

Tall too. You guys are all so freaking tall. We both felt very short tonight. Next year I'm wearing heels.

Wow! Thanks so much! Totally unexpected. So bummed I was too much under the weather to make it out tonight. Sounds like it was a success.

Want to make sure I shout out Graydon here as well, as he's been instrumental helping me with all the new KCC stuff from the start and deserves kudos.

Thanks again for the fit!

Good times. I had to pull I Houdini. Before you castigate me, Homeland was on and my flask runneth dry. Brody got his tonight ! My power #'s are looking good for this time a year meaning your prospects of coming around me are looking bad. There is an inverse relation between my rising power and your chances of success. Don't get mad at me....

Mike, Ryan, Jules, and other board members, thanks for the ACME fit. I appreciate it. Rest assured that my willingness to help out will continue regardless.

And Dave Yang, thanks for the cool picture/poster!

And great seeing everyone in a social setting. Good times.

Wine hangover this morning...woooo nelly! Great seeing everyone especially returning track star, Kieran. Super jealous of the awesome club champs jerseys on his and Ragot's backs. Photoshops were in good fun so hope noone was offended by the photo choices I made...

Definitely a lot of fun - thanks very much for setting that up, and the awards, and graphics, were wonderful!

Some people were dressed to the nines, and others, like me, in ripped jeans and a t-shirt. A testament to the variety of cyclists, racers, teammates we have, all ages and all levels. And what a joy to be in a room with such fit, good looking people.

I have to admit that it was a little odd meeting people in their street clothes, but once Kieran and Eric put on their jerseys, I started feeling a bit better.

We should probably do that every Sunday. . .

Great night, thanks to Jules for taking the reins!

I vote for more regular Kissena socializing — how about once every two months at some cozy beer hall in Williamsburg or Slope? Vlad can DJ.

Great seeing so many familiar and new faces last night, and thanks to Mr. Hubbard for organizing a memorable party. I was flattered to be among David's photoshop projects and very, very excited about the gift of fit. Thank you again all!

I like how Norm is doing a trick, behind-the-head shot in that.

And lastly, a farewell to our friends who have left to go adventuring...

I vote for more social events...but we should always have to wear our jerseys...I don't like having to take off my "colors" when I'm in Brooklyn. The bathrooms were a little dodgy in that place. Fortunately, I had my iPone 5 with me and caught this wild scene. Without the vid who would believe me?

Is this a plea to be shopped onto Anchorman 2 images?

I hope the Sommerville Sports Factory Team Brooklyn guys can make it... We can open up our first can of whoop ass on them. I may be a cat III on the road but I'm a cat I on the keg stand !!!

My plan is whisk Ros away to a room with a computer, have him design a "winter" KCC kit before he goes to the evil empire; all the while we get Jules so blitzed on scotch that he agrees to, at least, the return of blue-belly skin suit.

Get the ooey gooey butter cake ice cream. And then you'll all want blue belly skin suits.

The invite says "food" - is this finger food like last year or more like a meal? I'm assuming finger food. I want to plan accordingly with my kids so they don't eat six bowls of ice cream each.
