I have no idea what the flag icon signifies BTW. I made Lee S an admin and he vanished off into the sunset after changing a few things.

Looking for 1-2 more people to help at Saturday's dyke march.  Ronit B. and I will be there.  We will have a banner and tattoos to put on people!

2 PM at Margate Park.
If you can help, please let me know.

StartOut Movie Screening - Volunteer(s) to plan ride?

An organization called StartOut contacted The Chainlink about helping to spread the word about a screening of the film Miss Representation on May 8th at the Music Box Theatre. The event will raise awareness and funds for StartOut's Lesbian Entrepreneurship Mentoring Program. StartOut is an organization dedicated to fostering and supporting entrepreneurs in the LGBT community.

We would like to combine this with a bike focused event. Maybe by having a group get together and bike to the screening and/or bike somewhere for drinks afterwards. Is anyone interesting in helping to coordinate something in conjunction with the screening of Miss Representation? This is pretty short notice, but we wanted to try to spread the word. 

Let us know if you have questions or if you’d like to rally the troops!

The Manor & Meadow Tour

is a mere sixty days out.  I still need committments for volunteers to be ride marshalls.  Marshalls will assist the Ride Captain keeping the group together and handling enroute breakdowns.  PM me via The Chainlink if you'd like to help out.  I've invited members of my gay suburban group (WSGA), so we'll be properly represented.

Are any members of this group professional bicycle wrenches?  Meaning do you make your living working in a bike shop and identifiy as an out gay or lesbian.

This is one fag hag that needs to get her gays under control. Does Kathy Griffin have a remedial course for failed fag hags?

To the gentleman who took my friend home for a good time last night, I sincerely apologize on his behalf. As you've surely figured out by now, he is str8 and has never become comfortable with the sexual curiosities and sexual fluidity that all humans naturally experience. After calming down and having some sense talked into him, he realizes there was no way you could have known this, and therefor cannot be blamed for his sober discomfort with the situation. So sorry that he put you through that. Very very sorry about the scene he caused.

I'm hoping that (despite my friend's idiotic display, unfair accusations, and ridiculous demands) you'll be willing to help me. I'm not a man, I'm a woman, and not just a woman, but a full fledged fag hag. I see the situation for what it clearly is. I gave my friend quite a scolding for his morning-after behavior. Now, about the bike he was riding...it was borrowed. Not his. Mine. He says he thinks he may have left it locked up in front of your building, or maybe even brought it into your house, but he can't remember where you live. Not even within a five block vicinity. It's a black bianchi, in case your memory is also fuzzy ;) Do you have it or know where it is? If not, do you recall seeing him with it at any point? It is a prized and most highly valued possession. A gift from my brother, in fact. Losing it forever would absolutely destroy me, and getting it back would mean the world. Again, I'm so so sorry about what my friend did to you this morning. He feels really bad. If you would allow me to come pick up the bike, I promise you I will come alone, baring gifts, waving a white flag (and a rainbow one too).
