Who Did You Run Into (See) Today On Your Commute/Ride?

Who did you run into that you know today on your ride? Today was unlike any other day, especially in nice weather.

Aaron at Belmont and Clark and then my brother's ex girlfriend/yoga instructor at Schubert and Clark.

I had a John Edel sighting yesterday also, on wabansia and Kimball. He had the all too familiar head down, speedy look of someone on his way to pick up the kids from daycare after work. We gave the quick pass by howdy do holler.

I wonder if "John Edel sightings" is ready for its own thread?

I feel the same way. I rarely see people who I know in humbolt. Maybe we should have a humbolt park cyclist meetup/bbq in the park and get to know each other!

There is the Humboldt Park "gang" rides but they tweet and I don't, but yeah Spring is just around the corner.

I ran into George Christensen down in the loop two days ago [jackson and dearborn] ...being that we had never met prior to BFF - it was cool to run into a new acquaintance on bike... especially in a part of town where cyclists are a little scarce.

I played pool with Shawn Cobbs last night at golden cue (kedzie and montrose); then we had some awesome beers down the street (can you say 'robert the bruce' on a *hand pull* - DAMN)
