Clairey does san francisco: bay to breakers 2007

OK - so I have been hearing about bay to breakers (as well as loosing the ability to start a sentence without the word "so") for  a while and quite frankly was wondering what the fuss was about.
.
Excitedly I rushed to the haight for some costume purchases only to be told that my comrades had bailed. Cinders had lost her gig so - onward and upward. not to be beaten hooked up with Dave R after brunch in Zazie's with eugenie and we set  about  buying the most heinous clothes we could lay our hands on - strangely  shopping gott easier once fueled with a couple of  Magnolia's finest ales.

one revolting dress and a david hasselhoff wig later I'm wondering who  I am gonna be wearing my funny outfit with. Cue Jake - lovely Jake - friend of Eugenie's Bud, picked him up on friday night dinner a the blue plate in the mission and I was set.

The 7am start made me question the sense of the tequila decision only 5 hours previously, but a ride on Jake's motor bike through town, as well as being hit in the face with a flying tortilla, soon woke me up.

soon we were off with my new friends from Iowa. I might let the photos say the rest. thank you Jake for a great day x.
