The Subway

Living in the city is indeed rather wonderful.
You have such a great choice of coffee shops to go to and the amount of friends you can go and drink the coffee with is heart-warming. Also you get to see many a different person and that for me, experiencing it now after a year long estrangenment in the countryside, is a rather refreshing hm experience.
I went to see the Shin Sakae guys (Ren, Hide, ...) for a bit one afternoon and I was going by subway. As I walked onto the platform this man, an intriguing figure to say the least, joined the waiting company.
It was an old man dressed in a cycling outfit, full on hundred per cent, low hiking boots, cycling tights, a cycling t-shirt, ones that my dad would wear for his trainings or races even, an aerodynamic helmet pointed at the back, with a dark shield coming down from it covering most of this man`s face leaving only a great grey beard sticking out from underneath, and in his hand he carried an umbrella.
There is nothing really significant about this, only that it was so refreshingly different and mostly bizzare.
And at this sight I felt a strange satisfied elation.
