Beers, Babes, Beards, Bikes, Books, Boys, Bass

Hi, hi! Had a nice coffee on the patio in the sunshine. Got this cute heart shirt from Winners last night and it ripped already. Problem with all the sheer is it is so delicate. Head scarf was a vintage gift.  I’m doing a presentation at an ad agency about creative blogging this afternoon. Fun! I love going into new offices and throwing energy all over the place. Huzzahhhhhh! Beerfest 2011 – Breakfast Beer from 1188 on Vimeo. This weekend is Beerfest! Stoked to get beer’d with a bunch of babes, boys, bands, and friends. This video was shot by 1188 last year for the fest featuring Hipster Ryan from the office. I was informed yesterday that my daily blog email wasn’t coming anymore! Sorry If you have been missing it!

bikes, babes, beach.

Got a lotta crooks tryna steal your heart… Loving this track. Thank you Spotify for recommending new songs I didn’t know. People in Canada be hatin’ that I have a Spotify account but TBH, I don’t care what you say. I LOVE Spotify! We biked to the beach yesterday. It was SUCH a beautiful for a ride to the East. Was totally packed. Surprised by how many peeps were in the water. It’s safe I hear. I jus’ dipped in to cool off. Sun was real warm. This dog had the hugest balls ever. It was shocking. Fo’ reals. Not even joking. Took James Dean with me but my Wind stick didn’t feel like working so we were offline. Phone was dead too which was interesting because I was 100% no communicato. I had great company and it was nice to take a tech break. I usually find it harder and start scratching or something. Haha. Today I’m hitting up the Jays game with Keri, Lauren & some peeps. Blondetourage does sporting events too 🙂 Have an awesome day! Still one more day of long weekend. Make the most of it! Next update from a box at the Rogers Centre/Sky Dome. <3 CASIE

bike season, babe season, bixi toronto

Noticed this big guy the other evening. Recognized him from Montreal. He is BIXI. BIXI: Toronto’s public bike system. It’s the bike that’s really an alternative means of urban transport. Accessible to everyone, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You reckon it will be a hit? Biking is pretty rad and this city if full of people pushing pedals in the streets. I tihnk it’s cool. You have to give a deposit on your CC $250 and there are several plans available. I’m interested to try it out & see the bikes when they arrive. Ate a box of this last night with Keri. Omg so good. In other news of the day, can you guess who this is? No really, try and guess. Then click/see. I have this kinda wierd thing for him. We’ve never met. He used to creep me out but this gives me a whole different feeling.

a day in the life of a girl on a bike in city that never sleeps so she blogs her life away

Yesterday I went for a bike ride. I had lunch with a lovely Newfie named Brent Winsor who went to his high school prom with Jessi from MTV. We had BQM he paid, it was tasty. Actually his mama paid, THANKS MA! He has a wee Newf accent, that shizzz cracks me right the efff up. ENJOY Toronto BRENT! He said I am way smaller in real life than I appear on Twitter. Deff not the first tme I’ve heard people thinking I appear taller online. Larger than life? We also chatted w/  a CBC reporter about how Rob Ford was totes gonna win. Brent was a huge supporter although he can’t vote here. He likes controversy I think. heh heh I also voted. Rob Ford won. Knew that would happen. Anyone who takes on Mayor is going to have a hard job. I would hate that job. Peeps are so angry he won. Someone freaked out I had a different photo here. I took a pic of a blank ballot and drew in a vote. Not funny eh? Is this better? I aim to please 😉 In other news… I’m so excited peeps!  I’m part of this awesome campaign that is soooo close to my heart.  Curious??? Check out armyourself.ca and make sure to follow me on Twitter at @armyourself_gsk. ok, Gotta run bike to a meeting! Busy day. Have a good one, no, no, have a GREAT ONE!

bike helmet meets babe

I’ve been avoiding wearing/getting a helmet despite Mum’s efforts to convince me I need one. This is going to be hard for Mum to read the most I think… Last night at the intersection where near my house, a 34 year old woman was  hit almost killed when a car struck her while biking. She was not wearing a helmet. The streets were closed off and as I rode by and saw the lonely bike standing beside the police car, my heart dropped. I took these photos on the way to meet Saul Colt for dinner. The accident happened while I was there and 3 blocks behind me in the photo. I’m going to get a helmet within the next week. I will be photo-blogging it all the time. If you or your company wanna be my helmet head sponsor please email [email protected]

something about girls on bikes

I get on my bike and go for a hike I ride through the streets, push pedals with feet. The wind in my hair, sun on skin fair, these’s something magic about it. I love.

i don’t think you should drink and bike dudes

NOTL – That’s what they call it. Like it’s a gangsta-short- code for something really bad ass. It’s a popular spot for wino’s and people from the State. If you enjoy people watching, grab a drink and score a seat because you’re sure to see some entertaining characters. I’m not sure where the people come from but it’s so much different than being in the city.  Here, it’s busy and noisy and there are so many people that you can’t even tell who the crazy ones are and you barely have time to watch the days go by. Good food at this place, Prince of Whales. I was a little shocked to see the below advertisement for Wine Tours combined with biking.  I’ve learned that biking and drinking, especially to multiple destinations, isn’t usually a good idea. By the time you get to your last stop you’re half in the bag and then you have to go all the way back home. I’m surprised that this place even exists. I wonder if I can take a dirt bike around to different breweries anywhere? Now, doesn’t that sound like a bright idea? This building made for pretty pictures. It’s a really old one covered in vines. I’m watching The Bachelorette and I think she’s a wild one. This could be an interesting show.  I dig that she drives a purple vintage classic. I think guys get snarkier than girls do and there will be some fights.  Shame the preview gives the show away and the guys are such dorks.

Lesson #1051: How to Ride a Sport Bike

I asked my old roommate Chad to take me for a ride on his bike. After I gave him no choice I said “let me get ready!” and ran upstairs. The other two boy’s we lived with assumed I was heading upstairs to put on a jacket, pants, closed toed shoes maybe. No, not this girl. You know me much better than that. I put on the music, followed by my long blonde extensions, a micro mini and some red pumps. I was READY! I always wanted to ride on the back of a motercycle like that and god damnit, I did. Check that one off the list!
