Earlier today, an email arrived stating that a thread that I was following at Pacific Northwest Riders (http://www.pnwriders.com/) had been updated.
A quick look told me that tonight was Corvallis Bike Night.
It was something that I had always seen in the forums, and almost went a couple of times, but never could really make it.
I tend to play a lot of computer games. Lately it's been a lot of World of Warcraft and Sims3, but I wanted to have a conversation with someone who was:
A: Not related to me.
B: Over the age of 16.
I stopped by home and picked up my netbook (in case no one showed up I could go to church in Brownsville) and wandered over to the gathering.
I am really uncomfortable around people I don't know, so I am delighted to say that I had a great time.
Just getting into Corvallis, a motorcyclist turned onto a street the same way that I was going and intuitively I knew that we were going to the same place.
It was actually a good thing I crossed his path because we didn't stop at the pizza parlor that I thought we were going to stop at.
On the way home, it rained.
Not just sprinkles, or showers.
Rain.
I could feel the water rapidly seeping into my shoes even before I was out of Corvallis.
I don't think that my pants were able to absorb any more water.
And I loved every minute of it.
Ta!

So where does the group meet, now? I saw the Starbucks but didn't recognize it. Is it the one on 9th street?
ReplyDeleteI believe that it was American Dream pizza.
ReplyDeleteIf you come into Corvallis from Hwy 20, keep going through the lights onto the one way.
After a few blocks it will be on your right.
I think it shares a parking lot with a bank on it's backside.
