Weird forum dreams

Follow the light, Will. Follow the light...

Had that dream where my school bully found me and was chasing me through the streets. Was 16 years agom, wish this would go away :(

Ha Ha!

Well, that sucks. Not weird, just sucky.

Last night I dreamed that I went to a forum event (beers, track, ride) and ALL my exes were there, wanting to talk to me and/or wanting to get back together with me.

Oh the horror!

Last night I dreamed I was in some country mansion/halls of residence, in my pyjamas looking for my bike, endlessly. Everyone was outside playing in the pool, watching some barista comp, or on their bikes but I just went round and round searching, then walked around the city which was Durham, and through fields and lakes. Argh, bastard imaginary thieves!

Dream

I dreamt that we had a baby.
It felt like the end of everything;
The end of blind enclosed safety,
The end of not needing to know.

He was flimsy, brittle
And had an adult face.
We held him gingerly,
He was all that was left.

We had been playing and we weren't prepared
For something we hadn't invented,
Something insoluble, patient
And loosely wrapped.

We tried to laugh, but he smiled
And the skin creased around his eyes
And we realised he knew.

after yesterdays roll down through sussex to herstmonceaux which involved lots of hills the first few things i dreamt last night were steep climbs and hills with sharp kick ups towards the end
it was very close to being a nightmare

When ever i see this thread I think it's called wet forum dreams...

Last night (well, this morning really) I dreamt that I was in WillMelling's house, specifically in his kitchen, which had been recently redecorated: he was clearly proud of it. It wasn't overly fancy or ostentatious, but he'd given the place a nice new look and it looked much better.

It was quite a big kitchen diner kind of space and when I went through into the diner half there were a big group of people there for some kind of meeting. I was going to ask Will who they were, but he'd disappeared, and I clearly wasn't one of them. They seemed to be some of kind of AA/NA type group and I didn't really feel I should be there so it felt a bit awkward, so I went back into the other half of the room.

On the table was a scrunched up plastic bag which I hadn't spotted before. On closer inspection it contained a bottle of whisky. At which point I considered if it was OK (or at least tactful) of Will to leave a bottle of whisky lying around next to an AA/NA meeting, but I didn't know what to do with it because I didn't want him to think I was stealing whisky from his kitchen.

Then I woke up.

Had an odd dream last night. @provenrad, @pigfarmer and I met up in London. Prav had a weird cargo trike that could take passengers, and he let me have a quick ride around the block. The road was narrow, and an oncoming car did not give way to me as it straddled the centre line. When the car clipped the trike it flipped over and burst into flames. Prav was less than impressed as he was in a hurry and did not want to have to wait around and explain to the police what had happened.

There was some forum event about to start. For some strange reason I had taken off my shoes before riding the trike so @Skülly and @Aroogah volunteered to help locate them but by the time I woke up they were still nowhere to be found.

There were many other weird occurrences but they would make even less sense if written down.

Last night I dreamt that me and @cafewanda were in a car driving to somewhere like Spain and my cat was in the back with my brother, not in a cat box. We were eating some sort of coconut flakes out of a big tub that we discovered had a whole in the bottom, because flakes were all over the floor.

When we got to the French border, my brother got out of the car and put the cat in his rucksack and decided to go on foot. The cat was stuffed upside down in the rucksack and we managed to get him back only for my eldest brother to say 'let's see who Sam wants to go with' and instantly directed him to my other brother because he was closest and had a long dangling chain hanging from his neck, which Sam started to play with.

We continued our journey not knowing if the cat was going to make it alive...
And then stopped off at a vegetarian restaurant where loads of forum friends were eating. Then I woke up.

Had a properly trippy dream last night - the best I can describe it is a lucid hallucination.
I was in some sort of fractal tunnel, kind of like this clip below but way more vibrant and animated. When I tried to control it, I kept hitting the sides and stalling it like those rotating doors but when I just relaxed, it sped up and was really intense. It didn't last long as I must have gone in to deep sleep as a result.

Had a dream I worked in a tiny bike shop with edscoble on the front desk (despite having never met him). He did me a deal on a Compass Rat Trap Pass tyre I found hanging up, got it for £30, only the one mind.

Dreamt I was cycling on a main road like a motorway, and the weather was so strong that through the rain the wheels barely touched the road, and I had to cycle sideways into the crosswind to go forward

@hoke had to pull out of a bike race at the last minute... I helpfully stepped up to take his place. This was during the Olympics so I think I might have been watching too much track racing.

I am witness to a road accident at a wide junction at night. A white police van hits another van side-on at high speed. Both vehicles are written off, but two policemen get out and walk around looking unharmed. In the side of the police van is a freezer door, because it is also an ice cream van. I open the door and there is the frozen body of a man in cycling gear. He is skinny, folded up, and both his hands have snapped off. His long, narrow fore-arms end in dark red stumps. He is the ice cream seller.

Woke up convinced that I needed to buy One Night in Heaven by M People on 7". Even wrote it into my to do list app on my phone as I was so convinced it was important.

Almost as dark as that^

Watched waaaaay too many episodes of King of the Road yesterday. Half of Toy Machine and the other skater were in the dream. Except, they were off racing muscle cars while I had to try paint a picture on canvas, and the bar only had these super tiny size cans of Brewdog, and they had sold out of the good ones.

Had a really weird one this morning where my upstairs neighbours were getting married and had invited lots of random people from my life they don't know including my sister, my old flatmate and @amey who I'm pretty sure turned up in an SUV.

They fed the guests with goodie bags from Pret.

Are you quite sure it wasn't amey's SUV Cargo Bike?

SUV

Fuck you too

Sorry, I can't help my subconscious.

It was definitely not a cargo bike Oliver.

Got my first podium last night, closest I'll ever get?
