the infamous leslie and my bike
we definitely had a keep austin weird saturday. headed out on bikes to south first. g just finished designing the gully cat tattoo website and so we were out collecting some cashola for the day. we stopped over to get something to drink and as we were drinking our mexican sodas, leslie walked up. the usual thong attire and halter of some sort. he had a great bear hat on his head. i loved it. and tennis shoes instead of heels. even he knows its ridiculous to try to walk in heels.
we chitchat a bit. he says isn't it great to not have to be anywhere on anyone's time table. i agree with him that it's a nice way to live. on his butt cheeks, in sharpie it says: fuck you. officer conner. i didn't ask what that was about. but he does talk about police harassment a lot. i ask to get his picture with the milwaukee and he's like sure!
course, i didn't realize he was going to straddle it. ;-)
that's a fanny pack.
after that we rode on to brodie central market. g hung out at the bookstore, i decided to ride on.
i headed out route 31 to make my way to slaughter and finally to old san antonio road. this is the road that lots of folks ride to san marcos. i want to ride the fixed gear to san marcos - but it would have to wait for another day. whitney has the right formula: 35mile ride, swim and eat, 35mile ride back. so hope to get some folks together and do that a few times throughout the summer.
i turn around and back on route 31 to brodie/central market. then we rode back through town and decided to check out eeyore's party. one of the best freaky people watching events of austin. i can say i have seen enough painted boobies for one day. and i like boobies. it doesn't matter where you are in the park, there is something surreal and odd going on all around.
finally after an hour or so, i either needed to eat mushrooms or take off. i was too sober for it all. we had one very drunk guy come up and try to sell us windows. i saw a young boyscout in the drum circle. new badge requirements i guess. there were some very serious hulahoopers and that guy that calls himself batman and has the batman logo tattooed on his chest was walking around. i hear all he does is go to parties and mooch free beer. i guess that doesn't sound so weird. but everyone lets him get away with it cuz of the whole batman thing. there was the drunk guy that wanted to know if my nitto bars were 47inches wide. course i said i have no idea. and when i told him they were cruiser bars flipped over, he said: 'you just blew my mind'. oh and we also met a professional (retired) track racer that seemed to have some inside knowledge of the new velodrome being built here. or hopefully being built here. that was kinda cool.
so ya. keep austin weird. why not. you can get leslie to straddle your bike one day. or fulfill your dream of being in a drum circle.
