I know it's really late notice (I didn't even plan on doing it until about 5 minutes ago), but I'm thinking about going down to the track and do some training this evening before Battlestar Galactica comes on (10pm, SciFi). I didn't bring any of my stuff with me, so I have to run home and do some parts switching before going down there, but I should be there by 6:30. If anyone is interested, please sign up or post on the discussion thread (preferably both).
EDIT: It doesn't look like anyone's interested, but if you change your mind give me a call. I'm getting off work a little early today so I'll be down there closer to 5.
Start: 11:59 pm

Lets get together and clean up the track in preparation for the Festival of Speed! This is a great chance to get chummy with the DLV Elders, plus you will earn 5 race points (to help beginners get cat'd up to Wednesday night racing!). From the website:
We're looking to have one more clean-up day before the FoS. If you have the time we could use your help for a few hours in the morning. So put your painter, yard and/or concrete grinder clothes on and head on down....unless it's raining.

Building on last year's success, the 2008 Wheels to Heal Ride will be held on Sunday, May 4, in Columbus, Georgia.

Saturday, May 10th at 9 PM. More Details at http://www.badicalindustries.com/
We've put in hundreds of hours over 4 months to bring you Apocalypse Briggs. We feel the only suitable way to honor and celebrate this huge effort is to have a premiere party. The Pickup Artist premiere was great: laughs, drinks, three-way kisses. Apocalypse Briggs premiere: #1.
What to expect: We're premiering our 30-minute movie for Apocalypse Briggs. Check out the TRAILER. We'll also be showing two other shorts we made just for this premiere ... just to warm you up. Yum.

Let's make this a regular thing maybe.
Meet at Estoria 97's parking lot for a 7am departure to Stone Mountain. We'll take Hosea L Williams, Rocky Ford, and then The PATH this time and may do a different route in the future.
Bring some water, some tools, and a bike!
Pace should be 15-17mph average this first go at it and will likely start to pick up in the future.
This is a spandex ride if you're feeling it. I know I'll be!
p.s. I take no accountability for starting your work/school day in a way more awesome than usual way.

Once again its that time of year when we roast a pig!
If you've been before, you know the drill. If this is new for you, here's the low-down. We will provide one entire pig, roasted, and a large quantity of beer, cold. Please feel free to bring any items that you would enjoy eating with large quantities of pork. In the past, people have brought salads, beans, potato salad, brownies, tofu, cookies, guacamole, salsa, chips etc.
To help visualize the event, here's some pictures of prior years:

Adrian and I are mountain biking at Sope Creek in Sandy Springs Thursday at 6pm. I know this is late notice but I want to let y'all know in case you are in the area and want to join us.
Adrian is fairly new to Atlanta so this will be both of our first times hitting these trails. We are meeting at the interstate north parking lot at 6: http://www.nps.gov/chat/planyourvisit/interstatenorth.htm
If you are coming from Atlanta, please plan plenty of time for traffic, as this is right during rush hour.
It will be dark before we finish so please remember your lights! See you there!
Start: 7:00 pm
End: 10:30 pm
It's that time of the year -- Screen on the Green! This year it's being held at Centennial Olympic Park instead of the usual Piedmont Park. As such, you can't bring your own alcohol; however, it's my understanding that they're selling alcohol there (for $arm+leg). I'll probably try the 'ol wine or sparks in a bottle trick.
This is every Thursday night until the end of June.
This week they're playing Jaws.

After Critical Mass, come out to the new collective art studio/performance space/gallery, WonderRoot for a FREE show.
4 bands will be playing, and there will be a bar.
Come out and see Revolutionary Youth (featuring John and Alec of SoPo fame), and Apocalypse Radio (the most fun you can have with a banjo, ukulele, saw, accordion, percussion, and a wind-up radio).
This is one of the last times Phil and Becca will be around before they head back to NYC, so you should come say goodbye if you know them. And if you don't know them, come to introduce yourself and say hello.
Also, Sopo is having its alleycat there the following night, so you can come a day early and learn where the place is.
