Brushhead Bob, Biking Bot blending in on the streets of Berkeley and Oakland. Finding every bit of yellow he could see. Bright yellow plastic--even better. But what does it mean to be yellow anyway?
This adventure was taken on the fine afternoon of May 28, 2012, on the way to see friends Sarah & Claire up at Joaquin Miller park. From the looks of things, though, he might not ever get there...
Have you ever really looked down when you're standing on the corner? There are these yellow bubbles everywhere...
And then, he went and jumped right on the back of this school bus.
Yup, Berkeley still has a few of the yellow ones left.
And then, have you ever noticed all those yellow protective sheaths around the cables holding telephone poles in place? He did:
Of course, then he jumps right into this bunch of poppies, never minding that it's in the middle of Shattuck Ave., with cars blowing by on both sides.
Poppies are technically not yellow, but pretty close.
As if that wasn't enough, Bob seems to feel unreasonably safe right there in the middle of Milvia Street:
Don't cross that double yellow line, Bob!
Hey, did anyone know that Sunday was the 75th anniversary of the Golden Gate bridge?
Look who's celebrating!
Apparently, some of us need to be watched, little yellow robot.
Or, is it rather that some watchers need to be watched, hmmm? Bob continues his journey toward the park...
And notices as he climbs up into the hills with his human companion that there's a distinct anthro-centrism in the signs all around. It's not only humans that are X'ING the road, thank you very much.
And then at the end of the day, back to those yellow bubbles, at the Fruitvale BART Station. Though he never did make it all the way up the hill to the park, it was nice to see you, Sarah & Claire! Sorry Bob was asleep after all that riding--he could have taken a picture in Sarah's lemonade!
