The Passage of a Few People Through a Rather Brief Moment in Time #228 - Baby, It's Cold Outside
12.11.13
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),
but often it is not possible.
On this bike ride, you might expect:
- inconvenient passageways
- oblique strategies
- Oulipian constraints
- disorientation
- reorientation
- "cover" versions of other people's rides, performed with amateurish enthusiasm
- amateurish enthusiasm
- pool halls
- bowling alleys
- karaoke
- geocaching
- full moon picnics
- traffic median tea parties
- rivers that no longer exist
- smell tourism
- Couchwick v2.0
Furthermore:
- usually 20-35 miles
- usually some hills
- a medium pace (probably not for beginners; certainly not a hustle)
- few stops, short stops
- but we're not in a rush; we don't need to run every light
- victory donuts!

This week:
Baby, It's Cold Outside
...Or maybe it's not? Not actually sure; been working on a project for the last
several days and haven't really gone outside much. But, either way, that's not
even important. Because one can always wear an extra layer or two. And,
anyway, this ride is actually about babies, not the weather.
Babies!
(In the 25-30 mile range, no off-roading planned, one "baby" hill)
