bike month in to

apparently, may 26-june 21 is "bike month"(?) in toronto. not really sure what that means other than myself lurking around various events to snag free breakfasts and various glistening pamphlets. i did attend the group commute on monday morning - call me a wimp, but arising at 6:30 when you're hungover and used to getting up at 9:30 is tough, tough shit. but with a free t-shirt and pancakes at nathan phillips square thrown into the mix, how could i(now) refuse (to). anyway, it was fun tymez and vitty and byn came along for the ride, along with about 250 other cyclists. there's a criterium around st. lawrence market coming up as well, so that should be cool. the weather's beautiful here right now, so i'm off for a little night ride - an event in my personal bike month, which, really, is....every....month....
one.....two....
three....
go! go! go speed racer! i'm a big pirate and i like to kill!goin' to get the p-cakes. notice everyone else in the spirit wearing their free tees. i was pissed that they weren't xxxl, so i boycotted the wearing, but not the taking.
ghost bike, commemorates cyclists killed. free (not tall) tee.

p.s. - i know i look reeeeeeally tired in these pics, but it was 7:30 and i had only slept for about 4 hours, so i feel it's warranted.

Your bike looks fucking awesome in the pic where you are leaning on it. You dont't look half as tired as Kayo does though. Imagine trying to breast feed while fighting on a 240 that wants to JO on your face, a nightly thing. This post is better than ever because the mistress deubuted (is that the past tense for debut?) that single speed hubbula. The doc has cranks so let me know if you want one.
