Why Not?

Let's put it on YouTube, too...

Brent and I decided it needed to be done.

Cats vs. Dogs

Friday evening, post-FAC at the Zoo Bar in celebration of Reynold Peterson's birthday, Brent, Sarah, Ande & I headed to Haymarket Park for the Saltdogs season opener. Sadly, the photo doesn't really show that this was a Cats vs. Dogs endeavor.

There were some great clouds to the west, and the weather was perfect for baseball.

Fireworks Friday! Inexplicably, the fireworks display was accompanied by two plays of "Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones. Does this make sense to you?

Post-game -- a Cats victory -- we headed to Bread & Cup for some beers, bread & butter on the patio. On the counter inside were some beautiful antique peonies next to the fresh greens for Saturday's meals.

Its a pedal bike not motorcycle

Brent had an interesting experience the other day, as he looks to potentially replace his still-stolen Pista.

Sadly, the Craigslist posting for the Redline Big Block, requesting contact via text message, has been deleted. What follows, however, is Brent's text message conversation with the seller.

This was me desiring the simplest information from a troglodyte on wheels, trying to sell said wheels:

Me: Bike query: selling whole bike? what type/size is it?

Trog: Ill sell it at a whole or in parts dont really care its a red line big block 20 inch

Me: (in my head: 20" WTF?) Oh, that's not my size. sorry! good luck selling

Trog: If it makes any difference im 6 3 and ride it

Me: (reconsidering) Is this a road bike? i'm not familiar with the 'big block'

Trog: Its a pedal bike not motorcycle

Me: Right, i meant like a 'touring bicycle'. Is it that, or a mountain, commuter, etc? Just want to know what kind

Trog: O got ya

(end)

Kthanx, bye. I think his second to last transmission shows the extent to which he knows anything about his Redline 'Big Block'.

Real Spring Weekend

The weather was fantastic this weekend! After threats of rain the whole time, we only got some on Saturday morning, but mostly, skies were clear and flowers bloomed. Eric had a birthday, too. Friday evening, Felice, Brent, and I joined him for a ride to Eagle to celebrate. Despite threatening clouds, we only had a sprinkle once we were already back in town.

Stolen Bike Alert!

Brent got his bike stolen Tuesday night.

My Bike Friends,

It is a sad day. Last night during Haymarket drinks my beloved Pista was wrested from its Starlit place. Please keep an eye out for it at the pawn/bike shop. Call me in the event of seeing it for its recovery/killing the shit out of any perps in the area.

Godspeed,

Brent

It's a chrome Bianchi Pista. Any info, leave a comment.

Wheelie Face

Brent's got some serious wheelie face. Thanks for the persistent documentation, Conrad.

The Tam

Brent & I enjoyed the warm evening air to bike to the Tam O'Shanter. Brent enjoyed the shag carpet on the wall.


This is our new slogan.


Might make a good name for our BRAN team.


We biked through the fancy new arches along the Antelope Valley corridor.

art walk

Felice & I braved the cold to see some art Friday night. There were lovely paintings by Nolan and new work by Brent at the Turbine Flats space, 21st & Y. Once again, Nolan takes us to magical otherworlds.


Brent has been working with painted plywood etchings. I really like the silverfish (above) even though I really don't like silverfish.

This fish fish is a recreated fossil. Looks like it was fossilized at a very timely moment.
