The Passage of a Few People Through a Rather Brief Moment in Time #66 - Endless Summer

09.29.10

One or more persons during a certain period drop their usual motives for movement and action, their relations, their work and leisure activities, and let themselves be drawn by the attractions of the terrain and the encounters they find there.

It's a bike ride.

Started by user nathansnider and user theroyalacademy.

It meets every Wednesday at 8:30pm at California Donuts #21.
We ride at 9pm.
We'll endeavor to return before the last red line trains (around midnight).
See how we move.

On the second year of this bike ride, you might expect:
- more inconvenient passageways
- more full moon picnics
- perhaps more "cover" versions of other people's rides, performed with amateurish enthusiasm
- certainly more amateurish enthusiasm
- disorientation
- reorientation
- pool halls
- bowling alleys
- dance parties
- karaoke
- imaginary histories
- scavenging for fun and sustenance
- more geocaching
- more oblique strategies
- more Oulipian constraints
- traffic median tea parties

Furthermore:
- A medium pace (maybe not for beginners; certainly not a hustle)
- But we're not in a rush; we don't need to run every light.
- 30 miles, relatively flat
- Victory donuts!

This week:

Endless Summer



--Say, Ronda? I could use some help over here.

--Well, it's the summer, you see. It... it just won't end.

--Yes, it was supposed to be gone by now. Last week, actually. When fall arrived, it was supposed to make room.

--And I've tried to be polite about the whole thing too, you know? Subtly at first... digging the corduroy out from the back of the closet and such, then even standing by the calendar saying "wow, look at that - is it the equinox already?" but summer won't move from the couch. It just can't take a hint.

--And that's the thing. I wouldn't really mind so much, if it would just keep being unobtrusive like it has for the last, oh, three months or however long it's been now.

--I know! It was so quiet and unassuming, but these past few days, it's as if summer has to make up for all that time it spent reading on the veranda. Ever since fall got here, they've been up drinking all night, getting into fights. It's just sweltering and miserable. I wish they'd both go home.

--OK, so help-help me out here. I mean, how... how do I get summer to just end gracefully? I think if I could get them to leave the house...

--No, no, I've already suggested surfing. Several times, actually.

--Seriously. Over and over and over again. You have no idea how much I've talked about surfing. But they wouldn't have any of it...

--A bike ride? You think?

--Yes, that's it! I know just the place to send them. It'll be perfect.

--Oh, that's great. Thanks, Ronda! You've been a real help.

We get around.
