I love hearing news of the Olympics, because it’s exactly the kind of hopeful, human news that makes the world seem so much warmer and brighter. When we’ve put solar panels over all the parking lots, the wild tigers are no longer endangered, the water is clean, the birds have come back, trees cover the concrete, and the last bomb has been destroyed, I want my newsfeed FILLED with things like the Olympics. 

Sports can be fraught with corruption and greed, as can most things that are important to humanity - just look at the music industry, fashion, food - but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t embrace all the things that make them great. The great things were there before the corruption, and the doping accusations, and the petty rivalries. Sports are one of the few arenas where we can give our all, develop skill and strength and power and artistry and courage and daring, and experience total triumph or total defeat, but still absolutely OWN the victory of DOING THE THING. 

You practice and you play and you practice and you try and you work so hard and you DO THE THING and at the end of it, regardless of how you compared to others, you DID THE THING. You strove, you pushed, you focused, you achieved. The world is a terrifying place and a lot of the time I have no idea if the things I’m doing to survive are worth doing but at the end of the day I still did things, and how great would it be if DOING THE THING was as valued in our everyday tasks as it is in the sports we love. Everyday they go to practice, and everyday I do the dishes, the laundry, answer the emails. These things I have to do to survive, and they don’t exactly bring me joy, but together they help make a life that I want to live. A life with good food, clean clothes, a little money to buy treats for my child and my dogs. In the same way, I’m sure an athlete doesn’t want to run the same drill over and over and over and over again, but together those drills and practices all come together to make a game, a performance, a routine, a sport that creates joy. 

Let’s see the art, the effort, the strength, the victory and defeat that are all a deep part of DOING THE THING.

I want news in the future to only be about things like the Olympics. Let us stop invading our neighbors and start playing football with them.

rb's Free Rider's Motorcycle Memories (2 / oo)

On the Route des Grandes Alpes (Maritime Alps, France) – and some thoughts on the age of 60

First picture: Me and my Triumph Tiger Sport 1050 on a pass on the Route des Grandes Alpes towards Nice via Valley of Isere (Val d'Isere): Col d'Allos.

With my type of motorcycle clothing 8-) , it was also possible to hike up to the managed lake d'Allos (Lac d'Allos) without any problems. It's about 30 minutes (one way) from the parking lot further up, which is subject to a fee in the high season. The path runs partly on a rocky track next to the meandering stream bed. The path is marked with information boards explaining the formation of the stream and the peculiarities of the lake and its surroundings.

However, I don't want to give a description of the Maritime Alps (discover them for yourself!), but rather make a few comments on how traveling by motorcycle has changed for me with age.

So, let's go back to the first picture: A good 10 years ago in a somewhat freer and simpler world (also for motorcyclists): less complicated, less regulated, more light-hearted than today.

When I was younger, I wished the journey would take forever, and I could well imagine living in this fantastic mountain world: right on the spot, so to speak, without the tedious approach route of hundreds of kilometers.

The latter is still the case today, although in view of developments in Europe, the question arises as to whether I am far enough away there from growing madness …

In the early years, I also savored the trip to the hilt and always returned well after midnight or in the early morning, usually in pouring rain.

Nowadays, at the beginning of my 6th decade of life, it's the growing feeling: "I'm here and it's still nice, the routes are still fantastic to ride; I've seen a lot again and also new things, but now it's also good to go home again". Today I usually stay overnight again on the route back - due to my age. One positive aspect of getting older is that the feeling of being back home becomes stronger. By "home" I mean the people and the landscape: the environment in which I grew up. People and landscape are interwoven in a special, almost mysterious way; a realization that takes time.

The last two pictures: So I usually come back in the early evening nowadays. If the weather is not too bad, I take off my luggage and immediately cycle up a few more 10 kilometers to our "small" mountain and forest landscape here; in good weather bathed in the almost golden light of the evening sun in late summer and early autumn. And I am enjoying our narrow mountain roads through our mixed forests, our green meadows and our gentle to rugged (steep) slopes of the vineyards.

Here it is the south of Baden-Württemberg, Germany, not the "far" south of europe. It is not the fantastic mountain and rock world of the Alps with its (drivable!) passes up to over 2700 m altitude, its deeply carved gorges, its mountain lakes and streams, its alpine farming areas, its often grotesque and "dangerously" narrow roads, with their different people, their slightly different way of life. (You see, I'm already starting to miss that again.)

But it's my home and it feels good to be back.

And to get ready again for the next trip.

The LSU Tigers recently clinched the 2022-23 women's college basketball title, but their journey has encountered some unexpected hurdles. During Friday night's game, the team was without their star player, Angel Reese, leaving fans and reporters curious about her absence. Coach Kim Mulkey remained tightlipped when questioned about it, expressing hope for Reese's return without providing further details. This development followed Reese being benched during a previous game against Kent State. Adding to the team's challenges are off-court tensions between Reese's mother and fellow LSU star Flau'jae Johnson's mother that have spilled onto social media.

In a post-game interview after LSU's 73-50 victory over Southeastern Louisiana, Coach Kim Mulkey addressed Angel Reese's absence from the lineup. She confirmed that Reese was not in uniform but emphasized her importance as part of the basketball team and expressed optimism for her return in due course. However, Mulkey refrained from elaborating further on the matter.

Reese's recent absence follows her being benched during LSU's 109-79 win over Kent State earlier in the week. The decision to keep her out of play for the second half raised eyebrows among spectators and sparked speculation about potential issue within the team or coaching decisions.

In another setback for the Tigers, they suffered their first loss of the season just 11 days ago when they were defeated by Colorado Buffaloes with a score of 92-78 on November 6th. As if that wasn't enough to contend with, tensions have arisen between Angel Reese's mother (Angel Webb Reese) and Flau'jae Johnson's mother (Kia Brooks), which have spilled over onto social media platforms.

Angel Webb Reese took to her Instagram stories to express her frustration with a lengthy message she received. She criticized the message for containing numerous grammatical errors that made it difficult for her to comprehend its intended meaning. While she did not explicitly mention who sent the message, it became apparent when Kia Brooks, Flau'jae Johnson's mother, responded on Instagram with a post of her own. Brooks urged Reese and her mother to stop being petty, fake, and hateful while also suggesting they take responsibility for their actions. The response from Brooks emphasized the importance of humility and remembering one's roots. 

The LSU Tigers' triumph in secuing the women's college basketball title has been accompanied by challenges both on and off the court. With Angel Reese's absence from recent games, including being benched during one match, questions arise about potential underlying issues within the team or coaching decisions. Additionally, tensions between Reese's mother and Flau'jae Johnson's mother have added another layer of complexity to navigate. As fans eagerly await further updates regarding Angel Reese's status and resolution of any internal conflicts within the team dynamics, it remains clear that success in sports often comes hand-in-hand with unforeseen obstacles that require careful management both on social media platforms and behind closed doors.

The Wild Hunt

---

“Look at that!” Kili exclaimed, pointing at the shiny black motorbike that was parked on the edge of the sidewalk. Its polished chrome, sleek black leather, and black tires stood in sharp contrast to the worn stone of the street and the melting, slushy snow that had turned from white to a dirty dingy brown color. 

Ori looked miffed at the interruption. “It’s a motorbike,” he said.

It was only a few days before Christmas and the snow had made it feel more festive, until the temperatures had warmed again. The storefronts were decorated with baubles and lights. Kili and Ori were supposed to be doing some last minute Christmas shopping. But now Ori was sure that it would take a miracle for them to make it to the shops before they closed for the day. 

“It’s not just any bike!” Kili gushed. “It’s the new Triumph Tiger Sport 660!”

“I assume that means it's better than the Tiger Sport 650,” Ori replied drily.

“I would give up my left hand to have one of these,” Kili continued, not remembering (or caring if he did) that Ori did not care about motorbikes. It was one of the places where their interests did not converge. Ori had even taken to calling them donor cycles as a way of trying to convince Kili to stay away from them. He argued that Ireland was too wet, making riding a motorbike even more dangerous than places where it did not rain so much. But Kili still bought the new issues of RoadRUNNER and Bike as soon as they hit the shelves.

Kili was walking around the bike, mouth hanging open as he gawked. The street was empty except for the two of them.

“It would be really hard to drive with only one hand,” the owner of the bike said, seeming to appear out of nowhere. “I can barely handle her with both hands sometimes.”

“I was just admiring…” Kili was saying before he even looked up to see the driver. And then the words died on his lips. Kili was never one to believe in anything like “love-at-first-sight” or any of that nonsense. But “lust-at-first-sight” was something he definitely understood, especially in that moment. And it was not just because of the bike.

“Do you have a bike?” The blonde man asked. The leather of his jacket creaked as he moved his helmet from one hand to the other. 

Kili shook his head. “No. I’ve been saving, but…” he shrugged. “Even when I do get one I doubt it will be anything like this. She’s gorgeous.” Kili stuffed his hands into the pockets of his hooded sweatshirt and looked at the bike again.

“I know,” the owner grinned, but there was a sharp edge to the smile. His teeth were very white and his canines were very pointed. 

“Kili, the shops are going to close if we don’t get going,” Ori interrupted the exchange. He looked from Kili to the motorbike’s owner. He made Ori uncomfortable. There was something about him that reminded Ori of the faerie stories that his grandmother used to tell him. And not the nice faerie stories.

“Would you like to go for a ride sometime, Kili?” Ori’s words were ignored.

Kili’s eyes went wide. “Really?” 

“How about tonight? I’ll pick you up.”

Kili’s grin was so wide that it nearly split his face in half. “That’d be awesome!”

“Kili—” Ori started to interrupt. It was Christmas Eve. There were plans for tonight, visiting with family and then midnight Mass. There was no time in there for riding motorbikes in the dark with strangers. Not that there was ever a good time for that in Ori’s opinion.

But Kili was already giving the man his home address.

Only later when Kili did not come home did Ori figure out what he thought was odd about the end of their exchange. The man had not written the address down. He nodded and smiled, as if he already knew the address. And he did not tell Kili his name.

—

“We’ll be back after Mass,” Kili’s mother said, hand resting on the doorframe of Kili’s bedroom where Kili was buried under a pile of blankets with a damp rag on his forehead. “You stay in bed and rest.”

Kili nodded, the rag slipped down and covered one eye before he pushed it back up. His mother’s perfume filled his small room. And then she was gone. Kili stayed in bed waiting to hear the door close, the key turn in the lock, and the car start up and pull away only then did he get out of bed and tiptoe to the window to make sure that they were gone. 

He did feel guilty about lying to his parents about being sick. Ori would know that he was faking it the second that Kili did not arrive with his parents, but Ori would not tell, but he might give Kili hell for it tomorrow. But that was a future problem, one made all the more bearable by the knowledge that he was going to get on the back of a motorbike and be pressed very close to a very attractive someone. 

Kili was just tying his boots when there was a knock at the door. A peek through the window revealed the big black motorbike parked on the street. Kili nearly fell down the stairs in his rush to open the door. 

“Are you ready, Kili?” There was that sharp smile again. 

Kili nodded. “Just let me grab my jacket.” He grabbed his sweatshirt from the hook in the hall and blew out a candle that his mother had left burning since he was going to be home. The smoke curled up from the wick as soon as the flame was extinguished.

Outside, it was nearly dark already. The only light came from the distant street lights, the slim crescent moon, and the white Christmas lights on the neighbors’ houses that twinkled and swayed in the light breeze.

“Here,” the man said, handing Kili a helmet before mounting the big bike with ease and strapping on his own helmet. His blue eyes flashing in the dim light. 

Kili fumbled with the straps for a few reasons—1. He wasn’t used to putting on helmets, 2. He kept getting distracted, and 3. he was self-conscious of his clumsy hands.

“Here, let me.” The man’s warm hands brushed against Kili’s throat as he fastened the buckled and adjusted the straps. He slid two fingers between the straps and the underside of Kili’s jaw to check the fit.

Kili swallowed hard.

“Get on.”

Kili managed to get on the back of the bike more or less gracefully.

“You ever ridden on the back of a bike before?” 

Kili nodded. His uncles had given him rides when he was younger before Bifur had been in that accident. 

“You want to make sure you hold on tight, alright?” He adjusted Kili’s grip, pulling Kili more firmly against him. 

Kili nodded again, this time because words escaped him.

“Ready?”

“I didn’t get your name before?” Kili managed, thinking that he should at least know the the man’s name before they went off somewhere.

The man laughed. “It’s Fili.”

“Right. I’m Kili.”

“I know.” Kili could hear Fili’s grin.

“So where are we going?”

“Have you ever heard of the Wild Hunt?”

Kili nodded. “Is that where we’re going?” 

Suddenly the night seemed colder than before. Kili shivered. But he did not get off the bike, nor did he loosen his grip on Fili’s waist.

“Ready?” Fili looked over his shoulder. The bike rumbled to life beneath them.

Kili tightened his grip. The leather of Fili’s jacket was cool and smooth against his cheek. “Yes.”

“Hold on.”

The bike roared away from Kili’s house and down the narrow road to the main streets. But later, when asked by detective constables who were investigating Kili’s disappearance, no one had heard the sound of the big bike’s engine as it sped away because it was not there for them and they did not have ears that could hear.
