brilliant...clair and i were caught out in the first real downpour of the fall after coming out of the portland art museum. i guess summer's over clair tells me, and i tell her we should start picketing as a protest. what do we want? more summer! when do we want it? now!

I notice none of you messengers use lights or reflectors of any kind...is that because you guys view that stuff as "un-cool" to put on a fix-gear? or is it because you guys can't be bothered to pay for that kind of thing?

Fixed gears are sooooo 2005.

Just because you see a fix-gear and and someone who looks like a messenger doesn't mean they are a messenger.I am a messenger.I ride a fix-gear. I have lights. Stop generalizing people, and have the balls to go through a red light once in a while when it's perfectly safe.

You might be a messenger if before you go to pick-up your wifes new boots from the post office during the lunch lull what precisely you'd charge a paying client in terms of oversize and out of service area charges while quietly absorbing the fact that once you get said boots you'll have ride them back like a rush job to avoid dragging around that big box all afternoon with the paying jobs.

Dave, I like lights. I like reflectors. I like full fenders. and I picked your name because it ends in ER, and you're sort of a celebrity. Don't get me wrong. Don't get us wrong. can we all get along. Oh I like beer too. cheers to you.

PS. Hey Dave there are about 66 bike messengers in Seattle and 176 people who to the untrained eye appear to be messengers. And I know that you're not just riding for yourself but you're riding for the image and reputation of the largest cycling club in the country. That light was RED. just kidding. No really no not really no for real really.

is that a Dank bag you're wearing? Is that a DeSalvo you're riding? Is that an asspocket U-lock in your ass pocket?

is that a squiggly key thingy on your arm? is that the batman symbol on your chin? is that an application to washington legal in your DANK bag?

But it's nice to see you're on my side with the Livestrong bro.

DAVE! i totally saw you today bro, you were in front of the PSP wandering around. where was your bike?
