that time i went to the barn, torontos gay bar with the notorious slurp ramp. i locked my bike to a bike post near dundas ryerson and walked down to the club. this was a few weeks or so after the police had been there.
i was walking around getting some very strange looks from a lot of the other patrons. a couple of twenty year olds walked by hurriedly their eyes wide as they headed in the direction of the exit. i turned my head as they passed me and noticed my bike light was flashing under my shirt where i had clipped it to my pants. a security guard was coming up behind me saying to some one on a walkie talkie that yeah he found the person and it was just a bike light.
so there i was strolling around the barn with a red light flashing under my shirt at hip level a few weeks after toronto police had made a sting operation, probably with flashing red lights under their shirts at hip level. needless to say i didn't get lucky that night and left not long after.
i returned to where my bike was locked and it wasn't there, first thought was i mistook where i locked it up, but there was a rebar lock on the post which looked like mine so i tried the key and the lock opened. oh damn i missed the frame of the bike when i attached the lock to the post in one of the busiest spots along dundas. some one must of noticed.
about a week later one of the other tenants at sixteen chandos, everette colrin, said he noticed my bike wasn't where i usually parked it in the house. told him what happened and he said oh your in luck i'm taking a friend down to a guys place in the beaches neighbourhood tomorrow to get a free bike. the police give him some of the unclaimed bikes they find and he passes them on to people who can use one, you can get one too.
we went down to the house and his friend and me both picked out a bike. then the three of us road down to the tommy thompson park, the spit, to meet the guy and thank him. he was sunbathing in a secluded spot. we thanked him and he cautioned me about not wearing sunscreen and then he and everette moved off a bit as if to look at something and i could overhear everette say what do you think and the guy said no i don't think he would do. i had my back to them and was looking at the lake so i may of misheard.
so was this a recruitment operation by a government agency? i locked the bike up they have a master key take the bike, their asset on the inside everette, with access to the target then suggests he has a solution to the missing bike, and then the guy who puts on sex orgies in his house in the beaches can see the person the cia want to recruit for that activity. do something in return for the bike i just got. sex acts with the other guy?
or i'm just too suspicious.
