A Project

6 and 7 July – Trip 7s, woo.  Was subjected to corporate propaganda and gourmet (???) party pies in an effort to be subverted to the cause.  A difficult choice.  Spent a lot of time riding on Fridee – took far too long to get to Newtown after work and was berated only slightly for it upon arrival at Sydney’s coolest new Melbourne themed drinking bar (Madame Fling Flongs) where we ate overpriced canapés and drank overpriced beer (some of us did anyway).  Had to make an easy choice of eating an awesome Burger Fuel hamburger and a difficult choice of riding Randwick way to have a Pepsi at the crappe cinema bar and to see my surrogate father in action in Transformers.  As good as it could have been although the negative critiques that have been flitting around the blogosphere were pretty accurate as far I was concerned.  A rather late fast and far ride back to McMahons and was woken up for a ... Walk.  I’m a runner, a rider and several other things but I’m not a walker.  Bought a Repco bike – she’s a verra nice, made of steel and with very nice lines – decals are a bit much, bar tape needs a bit of work and the dropouts are too short (but could be grinded) - an excellent start to the next project though.  Another fast and far ride back from Sans Souci which was followed by a family member meet (the last of them?) and a latter session of ‘Knocked Up’ which knocked me out – scary theme though – I don’t like horror movies very much.
