Did she just call me a faggot? I think I might have been gay-bashed, verbally at least, this afternoon.  It’s a bit odd, and I’m not sure that it actually happened. I’ve been pretty lucky, as far as gay-bashing goes.  I’ve never been the victim of any kind of physical assault, and the last time I can recall being verbally harassed was in high school (and that was 35 or so years ago!).  Back then, it was simply the worst thing one teenage boy could say to the other, and it was … Read More

Here’s Ted and I at the front lobby of the Cow Palace, waiting for the opening ceremonies to begin.  Can you tell we’re both running on almost no sleep?  Huge crowd, I’ll have some videos later of the riderless bike, and the start of the ride.

Ted and I take a break at Peet’s Coffee & Tea shop on Market, near the Castro.

The Ride To End Aids

Ted Freitas

I recently published an interview, on QueerFresno and QueerLandia, with Ted Freitas on his upcoming participation in the 10th annual AIDS/Life Cycle, The  Ride To End Aids.

The ride begins this weekend in San Francisco, and ends the following Saturday in Los Angeles.  535 miles.  Ted will be live-tweeting the ride as much as possible, and you can follow him on Twitter, @tedfreitas, and read more on his blog, My Rebooted Life.

I’ll also be doing some posting on the blog myself, and I hope to link up with Ted and the riders Wednesday evening in Paso Robles.

Look for my posts at Ted’s site, My Rebooted Life, http://myrebootedlife.com, my Twitter feed @kc6yru, and here at JimmieJoe.com.
