guess what?

you know what’s more awesome than the last poker ride? the next poker ride. you know why?

’cause i won it, sucka! ha! yeah, big $35 jackpot baby…

sorry about that. but since i did win…i now have the responsibility of organizing ‘The Greatest Poker Ride Ever’. i could tell you about all the great stops i have in store, or i could tell you i don’t have a clue where to take us. the truth be told, i’m somewhere in between. show up on saturday night and find out what i currently don’t know.

hidden park 9pm

how many more have to die???

okay, so maybe nobody’s died yet…but you know it’s bound to happen. i’m talking about that little stretch of ave. cesar chavez between the interstate and the pit (unm basketball arena) where the sidewalk has been missing in action for years (for…ever?).

first of all, sidewalks? wtf? generally considered worse than useless by savvy cyclists such as ourselves, they do serve one purpose…. now going westbound on chavez, sidewalks aren’t an issue when you’re bombing the hill @ 30mph. but if it’s 5pm, and you’re going east, i’d sure feel safer on a sidewalk next to all those fresh off the freeway asshaulers and blind curves. i almost never ride on the sidewalk…only coming up central on that rare occasion. if there was one other place in town i would ride it, that would be past lobo village on chavez.

“Live like you mean it at Lobo Village, the best in Albuquerque student living! At Lobo Village you will have the privacy and lifestyle you deserve in a student community that is built specifically with you, the college student, in mind. Unless of course, you want to walk on our side of the street.”

hey, cabq. hey, unm. hey, american campus communities…a fuckin’ sidewalk would be nice.

if that’s not cold enough, there’s always the poker ride on saturday night. meet @ hidden/mcduffie park at 9pm. bring antifreeze for yer brain.

if that’s too cold for you? then sit back, turn on your big stupid tv, crack a budlight and watch some superbowl commercials on sunday…french mortuary will thank you later. http://www.remembertheirstory.com/
