Scraper Bike

Left here at like 1 last night, rode my new bike to wal-mart to buy the bare essentials: bike seat cover, sweatshirt, and lock. Yeah, my scraper bike needed a lock, but not an expensive one. I have this idea about thieves: if you're going to be crazy enough to carry around bolt cutters in the middle of the night, you can have whatever it is you need them for. Anyways, things are funny on a bike at night, for example...

1. Women look at you in a WHOLE NEW WAY. I think it's because they think I don't have a car. Or maybe they wonder, "Why does that little kid have so much facial hair???"
2. People get SUPER annoyed that you're in their lane, even though there are signs about every 2 blocks that look like this:

3. I wondered if I fit in the category, but wal-mart employees are a cranky lot... they generally don't want to do anything that would require them to move. One cashier, rather than call back to a 3rd shift stocker, made me walk halfway across the store to get her a price. Oh, now I'm just complaining...

Anyways, here's a video of some stuff me and the homies do for fun with our scraper bikes:
