Random Art Attack II
Does this count as art? I don't know, but it was the first art-related object I saw after cycling away from the Schiphol airport on my folding bike.**When I saw this billboard, I knew I was going to like Amsterdam: an uninhibited, liberated, gender-equality oriented and, best of all, a very very cycle-friendly city.
**There's a story behind my folding bike adventure; Shelley & Emily know it best - and share it often (thanks, gals...) It has something to do with me cycling to Gatwick airport, being stopped by a British police officer on the motorway, exclaiming "Are you mad?" to which I responded: "No, I'm Canadian!" Needless to say, I narrowly avoided a lift from the bobbies!

You forgot to mention that your headlamp had burnt out.
Riiiight: I remember now. I was cycling down the A40 (equiv to umm.. the Edmonton-Calgary highway) while my headlamp was slowing dying. Come to think of it, I was wearing the headlamp as I was going to buy bike lights (and a helmet) in Amsterdam, where it's sold super-barter-cheap open market style.
But with my one-speed folding bicycle, it was much slower-going than I anticipated and I found myself still cycling at 10pm, four hours after I left inner city London (to be fair: 35 miles is a lot to try to cram into four hours.)
Oooh, the things we do when we are young and foolish! Right Mom? Right Dad? Right Mike?
Heh.
