I live about 2 miles from the restaurant but not in Reston. This sounds like a lot of fun. Ernie Alright Ernie! Age is not a factor. Looking forward to some good ole BT frivolity. |

Master 1652 Reston, VA Gold member | Subject: RE: Halloween Costume Ride & Marine Corps Carbo Load dinner!! I would love to come for dinner and meet you guys in person (my hubby is running MCM, I guess i need some carbs too to provide all the support;-) but I will have to skip the ride. Z+ride in a dark+costume=broken limb or head. |

| Subject: RE: Halloween Costume Ride & Marine Corps Carbo Load dinner!! I don't know how dark it will be...do we have a time set yet? I was thinking more duskish? (I can use it as a word!) What about ride first, then meal? How's that strike everybody? I don't think anybody's planning on going out to get hurt...we're just playing! I know I'll probably be holding out on the aero-alcohol, for one...now post ride Margaritas? Yep - definitely on the menu! BTers don't let BTers ride drunk! |

Elite 2844 Reston VA | Subject: RE: Halloween Costume Ride & Marine Corps Carbo Load dinner!! This can be discussed... Ride first for safety - and then eat drink and maybe some bars ? But costumes MUST be kept on for the whole evening Having crashed in daylight I can understand the apprehension. And some people I know have trouble riding straight while sober!! |

Those with jobs should just suck it up and leave early. Take a half day - whatever. |

For the record, NOTHING goes down smoother than a little Southern Comfort.... that's my vote for poison-of-the-day. I was thinking about dressing up as a triathlete, but figured it was too much of a stretch. Maybe I'll pose as a 20-24 age-grouper. hehehe....Tim, I'll hang with an 'old' guy anyday - we're gonna have some fun! ~ Joe |

Stop being a bunch of wimps. We can carry flashlights. Yeah, it's already getting dusky around 7 as it is. I'll have to get some lights for my bike...I don't normally ride at night because of safety issues (riding alone), but with other people, it'd be okay. |

The darkness, the costumes, the alcohol, the lights . . . it all has me very nervous. Seriously. I worry about this stuff Sheesh... 27 going on 60... good call, Grandma! |

| Subject: RE: Halloween Costume Ride & Marine Corps Carbo Load dinner!! I wish I could make it, but I can't justify coming from California... (BTW, Corps is spelled with an "s." Someone forgot it awhile back. Sorry, I always feel compelled to correct this when I see it.) |

Pro 4481 Reston | Subject: RE: Halloween Costume Ride & Marine Corps Carbo Load dinner!! Having just finished my workout on the W&OD in the dark, I can vouch for the fact that it is VERY dark. But that would make it more fun, right? Edited by 3558 2007-09-18 8:57 PM |

But that would make it more fun, right? Depends on where you are, I think. Probably the farther out you go, the darker it is (less stuff around). I've ridden the entire thing and don't remember lights or much of anything farther west. Edited by wurkit_gurl 2007-09-18 8:58 PM |

| Subject: RE: Halloween Costume Ride & Marine Corps Carbo Load dinner!! Safety is important to all of us. We'll be in a big group...we'll have lights. We'll take care of one another. Just my .02. I think it's important to think about these things - but, we're all adults - we'll be okay.  |

Edited to add: I am old but I can keep up with the margaritas... oh wait... you meant keep up on the bike. Yeah, whatever, that too. If Mila shows, too, then we are truly in DEEP kaka.... I'm getting a babysitter NOW! ~ Joe |
