More about this interesting group from Seattle Wiki:
Point83, or .83, is a group of cyclists located in the Seattle metropolitan area who are extremely enthusiastic about most everything that is bicycle related. .83 accepts anyone who wants to have fun riding bikes. Point83 was begun in the fall of 2004 by some recently acquainted friends who met during Critical Mass. They derived their name, which they promptly made into spoke cards, from the distance covered one of their early rides, which was during a heavy storm that forced them into a bar for shelter and beer.
