Events+moments del 2010: May 11th Dr. Sketchy's girls on bicycles

There are some photos and events I didn't get to publish last year, I will post them in the first couple of weeks of the new year so, some kind of my quasi-review of 2010.

+ + + + +

Last year, Alice invited Amanda, Constance and I to be the models for her fantabulous Dr.Sketchy's event. The theme was Girls on bicycles and the event was SUPER fun. Posing and being still for 5 minutes is pretty hard work. It was awesome to see the pieces of art at the end, meet many of the artists and having a drink to toast for the event. Good times.

The event was at 111 Minna, we brought our bikes in and we posed with one of the bright orange public bikes. The audience was colourful and brught all their pads and pencils and were ready to rock. Here are the photos from the much overdue post from May 2010, so much fun!

Feed the models, had some snacks before heading to the event.

The sock monsters guy. He said this one monster looked like me. ja jaaa.

 

The part of restored side of the original Academy building was buzzing with vendors and shoppers.

oh hai.  Thought the junction of views here was quite interesting.

Parking. The Academy of scions has plenty of bikes, though it gets pretty crowded at times.
Someone has previously commented on the limited use of bike parking for staff.
Does anyone have any updates or information upon that?

And here is what I wore for the evening. Due to nasty allergies, I was a tad high on very rare Sudafed dose. Yuuuuuuck...

and off we go

Evening ride

This concludes the 3 Holiday artsy craft events. Cute stuff, lots to see, large little fan of the DIY indie crowds.

Events+moments del 2010: December craft fairs - Bizarre bazaar

There are some photos and events I didn't get to publish last year, I will post them in the first couple of weeks of the new year so in chronological rewind. Some type of quasi-review of 2010.

+ + + + + 

The Bazaar Bizarre was held in Ft. Mason, in the "grueling far and hilly" and burritoless north side of town, which also happens to have amazing Golden Gate, Marin and many views of the beautiful Bay. While riding to the event in the super crowded parking, I ran into Dave and his Schwinn krate-mayhem crew.

Dave is one of the nicest guys you'll find biking around the city :)

Later I found a photo Dave had also snapped of me. Him and his friend Ed were on their way back to the ballpark, they looked prepared. 

Love running into bikey peeps riding all over the city!

There were a number of interesting things and vendors that had grat stuff, but I only made it for about 10 minutes. Ran into a couple of friends, bough a one-sie(is that what they are called?) for my buddy's new baby boy and left. When I can't chat to the vendor on voice level, or hear my thoughts while getting smacked by antsy elbows, messenger bags and purses that can't seem to be able to get through, it is time to leave.

So ditched it all and I went riding. 

I deviated towards the Crissy field area to follow the sunset and some quiet time.

Riding instead of crowded crowds, anytime.

Bazaar bizarre is too crowded for me.

 

Beautiful

Qué beautiful skies. Wicked.
