I wrote that I quit the office and rode to
MV. I had another moment neat Ellis
again. I have to look at this set of
intersections more seriously. At
CalTrain I boarded and interacted with a lady I knew who was caring for her nephew. I took BART to Civic and went to the print
shop at which I had printed out my flyer for the Ladies Ride to Larkspur. I went to Peet’s and looked at Twitter to
learn that the show put on by my artist friends was on 24th at
Folsom. I took Van Ness the whole way
there.
I had wine and met my artist friends. His were prints and hers were cut paper. I met their friends as well—his brother, his wife
and several ladies that knew the other artist.
I handed out at least ten flyers.
I met two ladies that indicated that they were interested. I went to the Pizza Shop and the liquor store
for a small bottle.
I rode Shotwell to 19th and I
discovered my front light was dead. I
went to Duboce Park for Bike Party and focused on handing out flyers to
ladies. I interacted with a few guys and
made it clear to everyone that men are welcome.
One girl made a facetious comment that the ride was sexist. I passed out 30 flyers.
I gave a few to my friends. I met some new people and my buddy wanted to
know where I was because he was late. We
went up Scott and then to Page. We then went over to Civic Center and up Turk. The first stop was at Alamo Square and I had
to climb Steiner and didn’t use the stairs.
At the top I passed out another 30 flyers. I caught up with my buddy and he told a story
about being detained for kicking a car.
I introduced him to the people. I
met a guy I had met when we had gone riding in lieu of the canceled January Bike
Party. We then rode to Clay and up to
Inspiration Point. On the way I interacted
with some people I had met at my first Bike Party.
I saw talked to people about the flyers
there and solicited their advice on the size of the ride. I met a friend of my buddy and my buddy was
put off by something I said. I had to explain
geography to people again. We rode to 15th
and up to the Conservatory. There I said
bye to my buddy and was asleep around 12.
On the day that I wrote this I was up at
around 530 and again at 9. However, it
wasn’t until later at around 11 that I went to Four Barrel. I talked to a guy about his Chrome Dahon. I then went to Pedal Rev for a new seat. I climbed to Central then and had very little
trouble with traffic. My barista friend was
there. She said she no longer had a bike
because she had moved to Portola and needed a car to get everywhere. I told her I would give her a flyer when I
had a chance anyway. I read the paper
and made comments to Twitter about hikers in Marin. I posted a link to my blog.
I rode home and at the Polo Fields I had a
problem with a BMW. I took a picture of
the car and the driver wasn’t pleased.
At home mom and dad had passed out on account of the air in the house. I opened the windows and went to my
room. Mom went for a walk. I started working on my notes then
This is an occasional series chronicling my life. This
Notebook Analysis series is meant to
be contemporaneous piece developed as an agglomeration of my notebook pages. In
each of these posts I used my notes to develop my recent thoughts.
