Hi, everyone,
Sorry I was not able to come to the meeting last night. My driver’s license was expired and I have depended on my pregnant wife for transportation. Yesterday, she was too tired to go out, and so I did not come.
I am planning to shop for a bicycle this weekend, preferably a mountain bike. Does anyone has any suggestions or warnings?
Thanks,
Jing

Thanks who came to the meeting tonight.
Nice that it didn't take all evening and Traci's iPad didn't run out of juice. And thank you Marilyn for bring the yummy treats!
On another note, I found out who those bike parts belonged to Damien. Gerald Audet, a fine local rider/racer. He had posted all over the MBC list and facebook about his missing parts. I took full advantage of his situation and forced him to beg and plead. It felt very good. :)
He is also very grateful to you. (I didn't take *all* the credit...)
Have a nice evening and a good weekend coming up everyone!
