YipSan called us "Geeks."

4 hour bike ride today. I think I am too tired for ice cream.
There was a bike shindig at the football field and Renold Yip of Yipsan Bicycles was there. http://www.yipsanbicycles.com He makes the most elegant bicycles possibly ever. We talked for a looong time about how in many years if I can afford it I'd like him to build me a recumbent. And what other women want in custom bicycles. He's lots of fun.

At one point on the bike path the city blocked it off with a massive amount of dirt to keep people away during construction. We climbed it. At another point the path was flooded 8" deep. We forded it. At multiple points the path was filled with loser cyclists in their snobby outfits and boring bikes BLOCKING THE PATH while they ate granola bars. I dinged my bell at them.

Tired and tired and tired we went to Home Depot for the fruit tree sale. A fruit tree can cost $50-$100. These were $18-$25. Nothing causes relationship discord like a Macintosh tree. "It's freaking busted, like any Apple product." The apple of discord.
A Macintosh, Red plum, Reliant peach, and Queen Anne cherry.

-------------
Then I ate ostrich with broccoli, snow peas, and enoki mushrooms. Awesome.

We valeted the bikes at the free bike valet. The Valet said, "Oooo.. I've seen those around, but I've never tried one." I told him that there is only one of this bike, but he's welcome to try it.
"No... no.. I couldn't..."
"Hop on!"
"...noooo..."
"It's insured."
"It IS!?"
"Fully."
*hops on the bike* "How do I ride it?"
"Put this pedal here... and push off as hard as you can, then pedal at all times. You won't crash if you are pedaling." He loved it! How could you not?!
