Next month, I plan to wake up. God willing. J. |

Don't forget to lock your bike first. Carry $5 so you don't get busted for vagrancy. And watch out for those Starvation Army do-gooders -- they'll try to feed you thin soup & stale bread while making you sing "Shall We Gather by the River" for your dinner, and then they'll try to dress you in badly dry-cleaned clothes that somebody else died in. Chances are you'll hear "Love the sinner, hate the sin" so much it'll drive you up the wall. Those Starvation Army do-gooders don't know how to sin artfully. Clumsy sinning is a Sin. Next month, I plan to wake up. God willing. For me, ~every~ month is Bike Month. Well, January, maybe not so much. In Vancouver we have BikeSummer as well as BikeMonth (June, which is also when the cops are more inclined to enforce our local MHL.) But I kinda like the idea of Chicago's BikeWinter. I respect that Chicagoans have the balls to even have a BikeWinter. cheers, Tom -- Nothing is safe from me. I'm really at: tkeats curlicue vcn dot bc dot ca |

Personally, I'd be inclined to just wait for good reading material to blow my way. And I'd try to not roll over on my reading glasses[*]. I guess the gutter is as good a venue as any for listening to HS. I listen to George Norrie in the bathroom. cheers, Tom -- "It's not fair! It's not fair!" -- Burgess Meredith, in one of my fave Twighlight Zone episodes |

Bike Summer is now a movable DIY feast. http://www.bikesummer.org/2008/main.htm Vancouver hosted it in June 2001 to correspond with our annual BikeMonth. Others have been hosted in San Francisco and New York. But I kinda like the idea of Chicago's BikeWinter. I respect that Chicagoans have the balls to even have a BikeWinter. The ZooBombers in Portland host Mini-bike Winter. Basically a drunken and bruised weekend of poetry and craziness on 16" wheels. Portland's winters are way different than Chicago's. -- zk |

But when cyclists do it too ... Jeremy Parker |

As I recall, the events included a well-attended bike bazaar at Stanley Park. I believe the VACC does pancake breakfasts for bike commuters during Bike Month. cheers, Tom -- Nothing is safe from me.
