/\ PNW Air Hockey Competition may be coming, it's been a while but I've got some skills on the air hockey table. I'm up for a challenge!

See y'all tonight, 7:30-10?11?, at the Slingshot Lounge!

56th & Foster in SE Portland

Pictchas!

Thanks for coming out, everyone! I think it went really well there - had a couple similar responses last night, perhaps we try it again next week? (Mike, I know your bitchin is coming so eat beforehand! )

Well, I dont drink but besides drinks they dont have anything
I'm sure there is "better" spot on the east side that will work for everyone.

I'm no show for next week.

Dave, awesome to see you come out. I was a bit intimidated at the air hockey table, but girth apparently can't outdo skill, so I'm fine.

define: anything. They had juices and sodas to drink, and a limited menu (hummus, mac & cheese, couple sandwiches, soup), so no it was not a full dinner place. Before CPK, I've never done a 'dinner bikenight' thing, which I imagine is where your dissapointment lies? Mike was bitching about that too, but hey, eat before the meet at 7:30pm, or at one of the restaurants down the street. I want a place where we have bike parking, outside hangout, activities, cheap drinks, and room for all of us. I'm open to other suggestions, this was a trial night which we may try again.

Edit: They're building a kitchen which should be fully operational within a few weeks.

The location, games and refreshments were great. And even considering most people have eaten by 7:30p (me not being one of them), at the least, pub-food would be nice. If they get the kitchen together, I'm still in favor for this as a location, even if occasional.

The size of the place is great, the only problem is the lack of food. With some munchies, the place would be a blast. I'm game for trying a few other places, but I like the larger place, and having the option of being indoors or outdoors is ideal. What's the point of a bike night if we can't spend some time outside with the bikes?

So yeah, Slingshot wasn't a bad idea, I'll have to bring more quarters next time and maybe find a driver

OH! I just got back from a phototag and wanted to let you guys know I snatched it back from the West and gave to the East.

Maybe I'll see some of you guys tomorrow night or something.

It's late, I'm out,

-James

I think we'll do it one more week at Slignshot, just because we haven't figured out a different place yet. It should be starting to cool down around 7:30-8 when most folks show up.

My advice: Squid it.


Free Jamba Juice to cool you down beforehand: Free Jamba BOGO. BEAT THE HEAt!!

I'm going to try and swing by. Sounds like the GF will be hanging with me so I'll be two up on the 'bird if I show.

Just for S&G's I called the Slingshot. They have A/C!!!

I hope they weren't lying just to drum up business...

/\ Nice! I'll prolly be outside enjoying the heat anyhow. Should be perfect right around 8:30.

I remain undefeated champion on air hockey, having taken down all competitors. Will he remain after this week? His 4-0 record says maybe, but his heart says yes.

See y'all tonight!

Yall were an erratic crowd last night. Kept showing up and then leaving, getting essentially 3 rounds of people. Hell, by the time everyone left at 10:05pm, a few of the Full Tilt Riders showed up. It was embarassing to be the only damn PNWR member at our bikenight.

Sorry, sore as hell last night, hence the short visit. Went home, took some pain meds and went to sleep. May have pushed myself a bit too far yesterday.

Felt good. I was relaxed, so no stress from grabbing the bars too hard and causing problems with my shoulder.

For those of interest, TimothyElkins, our rider and GM at CPK is trying to set up a happy hour to gain back our business.
