Moveitfred assumes his vast readership was shocked upon seeing the post of his beloved dog under the heading "Fat Bitch." This certainty has weighed on Moveitfred since his post. He wants to explain.
Moveitfred's fat black bitch is a female breeder for the local guide dog society. She is, in essence, a professional baby maker. The picture was taken of the fat black bitch before she was shipped off to the birthing house for this, her fourth and supposedly last, litter of pups.
Upon birthing and teating her brood, she will then be retired from birthing duties and will live out her days at La Casa de Fred. Undoubtedly fat, black, with streaks of bitchiness.
In other news, Moveitfred was scheduled to ride with Al Bangorhard two days ago, but Al pussed out. Al said his back was sore and he needed a mineral soak. Moveitfred hopes Al feels less sore.
In Al's absence Moveitfred did a kicker of a cyclocross ride through the local woods. Today Moveitfred went for a long hike in another stretch of forest and then popped in "The Big Lebowski" and hammered out 45 mins on the C2 rower down in the dungeon.
You got that right.

Dear Bloggers
Today Moveitfred is cozying up with a warm cup of cider while you are chattering over the now dried out, bone-crushing course at Gloucester.
Moveitfred knows blogger will endure heavy use tomorrow as you post your enthusiastic post-race fodder, and Moveitfred looks forward to skimming all you have to say.
However, Moveitfred wants you to know he has contacted the top brass at this outfit and you will be blocked from using the word "epic" in your posts.
Consider this simply a friendly public service announcement. You're welcome.

O' Freddo
Had to pull the plug on the waggle up to Gloucester this year.
Instead he'll just wait for the clever "New England Worlds" videos melded to the hip music to flood the web.
And he'll watch them.
In anticipation, Moveitfred got a nice 90 mins in on the purple puz this morning and parked it next to some boats for a rest.

Where's Al?
Moveitfred wants to add this about the irascible Al Bangorhard: He don't fuck around (pardon the blunt, caustic language).

Glee
Moveitfred has got a little chirp in his whistle. The insolent Al Bangorhard intends to pull himself begrudgingly out from under his rock and join Moveitfred for some cycling in the countryside tomorrow.
Al tells Moveitfred he intends to set a plan in motion to bust our two heroes out from the drudgery of their factory jobs early. Something involving smoke bombs and feces.
Anywho, apparently Al intends to swim out in the always treacherous Long Island Sound as well.
So he says.

Full Day
Moveitfred took purple cx bike out for two hours this morning and tore the shit out of the new grass over at the elementary school.
This evening, he and Moveitfred Jr. slayed up a bucketfullota of bluefish and porgies over at the sacred fishing grounds down the road.
Moveitfred's gonna walk Stupid Dog and call it a day.

Soft Cheese
The ol' Montauk Hope ride got a rarin' start yesterday with plenty of standing around in the parking lot. Moveitfred volunteered to haul Mrs. Moveitfred and two other local compatriots and their bikes to begin this epic adventure.
Moveitfred unloaded the bikes and then leaned against Sexy Minivan with a cup o joe and watched the hoards arrive while the painfully slow process of registration, filling tires, and figuring out there to stash the lunch tickets ensued.
For many attempting this dash to the east end this is the one and only bike ride of the year. This is a ride where one can literally spot spongy housewives dabbing spider webs off their bikes with tissue. Also, plenty of this: a dude pulled in next to Moveitfred in an Escalade with a spotless Madone strapped to the back. He told his buds across the lot that he "just got it" the previous night over at the local Trek-n-Go across town. Man, Moveitfred'd like Trek dude's cash register take day before this thing. Moveitfred would buy a shithole in the mountains and leave all y'all the fuck to figure out what to do with this world....
But, back to business. Moveitfred got his crew stable and relatively pleased before inching out of the lot. One of the most terrifying 5 minutes of Moveitfred's life was negotiating Sexy Minivan out of that lot as dozens of once-a-year bikers wobbled around and compared chainring tattoos. But y'know, good for them and their fat asses.
Moveitfred got home to rouse the kids and figure out how to pack Sexy Minivan for the ride out east. He saw the note left by Mrs. Moveitfred that contained these words:
"Don't forget the brie."
Are you fucking kidding Moveitfred? The brie? Sometimes Moveitfred thinks there must have been a moment in time he completely missed when his life took a radical about-face.
Reluctantly Moveitfred packed the brie, his bike, and all the beer he could squeeze into the cooler, threw the kids in the car, and drove. Long drive short, Moveitfred did the Hamptons Crawl for much of the drive before finally arriving at the end point, but not The End, where Mrs. Moveitfred would conclude the pedalfest.
Brie intact.
When Mrs. Moveitfred triumphantly arrived at the beach Moveitfred gave her a peck on the cheek, the keys to the car, and notification that Moveitfred was about to unload his very red Serotta and be gone "a long time." The clambake/briefest beach bingo would have to go on without our hero.
Moveitfred's intention was simple. He wanted to kill a couple of hours roaming around the east tip of things until it was about time to pack up and head home. Pretty much sums up how Moveitfred rolls. And along the way he saw incredible things.
First significant stop, the bar at the Memory Motel for a beer.
Moveitfred can't think of a time he's ever stopped mid-ride for said beverage, but figured the Memory Motel was just as good as any place to do it. A few crusties and surfer types swilling as well, but in the end not as significant as Moveitfred thought it might be. He can't be faulted for imagining a life-changing experience, can he?
Next, another lengthy stop on the sunshiny bluff at Camp Hero where a shitload of fish were getting murdered.
Cheap sucks onshore couldn't reach them.
After nearly passing out and tumbling off the bluffs to his death, Moveitfred roused himself from his buzzed half-life snooze and back on the wheels. He continued out to what the natives call "The End"--that point of symbolic entitlement that says you have reached the conclusion of all that matters--and then latched onto the tailwind for a spirited hammerfest back to Hither Hills.
Where, thankfully, the brie already had been consumed and most of the crowd had dispersed. There's your end of summer.

It wasn't a rock
Shout out goes to Paul Sadoff, the man at Rock Lobster Bicycles, for building a superb frame this summer for Mrs. Moveitfred.
Mrs. Moveitfred has been pushing the blackie/pinkie machine for a few weeks and has her first big ride for the Montauk Hope in the morning.
Moveitfred has been cleaning/tuning the bike this afternoon and, upon close inspection, has gained even more appreciation and respect for Paul and his work. For a base-model steel tig frame he did some clean, precise, and even detailed work. Shit be tight, yo.
In short, Mrs. Moveitfred will stand out among the hoards of Specializedkleintreks with the sweetest damn bike in the crowd. Nice work, Paul.

Fixin' Shit
Moveitfred got his neighbor, Jimmy, to snap a photog of him doing some yoga this afternoon.Since returning from LA, Moveitfred has felt the effects of too much lazing at the beach and them In-N-Out Burgers out there. So it's been strict as shit back to the hardcore for Freddo, including light spins on the bike and yoga.
Correct: Fred is not fucking around.
Moveitfred plans to explore the often overlooked aspect in training: flexibility.
Heywood Jablome sent Moveitfred a blog link for flexibility training that Moveitfred has since lost, but it covered some type of west coast approach popular in the SF Bay area. Anyway, Moveitfred didn't have the attention span to view/read/follow the instructions anyway, however Heywood explained to Moveitfred that the training involves repeated toe touches and something Heywood called "Thigh Flutterbies" with a partner.
Trouble is, Moveitfred doesn't have a partner.
Unless you count Al Bangorhard.
But Moveitfred doesn't.

What Else Is New
Moveitfred is back home after an electrifying 4 weeks out in the Land of LA.
But enough about all that.
Back to the Rockpile today. Moveitfred bike-commuted his ass into the factory where the indelible Al Bangorhard greeted our hero with a swift kick in the nads.
Moveitfred and Mr. Bangorhard share what some might label an "office" but what is really a den of excess and depravity among an otherwise functioning workplace. The real issue is the fucking incessant heavy metal noise Mr. Bangorhard channels through his circa 1970's receiver and polished oak speakers.
Mr. Bangorhard wants to rock and roll all night, and party every day.
Only other news of worth at the factory is that the management installed Dual Flush Handles in the unisex employee growler.
Moveitfred has had issues with sharing his bath with broads (and no insult meant whatsoever with the use of the term "broads" in this context, it's more a representation of Moveitfred's unease with the situation) over the years, but now he needs to pay attention whether he should toggle up for liquid waste and down for solid? Please.
You can bet your ass the union will hear about this.
Moveitfred felt like a slug on his bike, although his clocked time into the factory was about average pace. Now, the big decision: Moveitfred took the early shift at the factory on Tuesdays and Thursdays with a scheduled clock-in at 6:30am. He's been considering lights for a 5:30am commute through the boscage of suburban Long Island...

Pledge Allegiance
Moveitfred switched hats and attended the Angels game last night. And you're damn effin' straight he shoved a little kid out of the way to grab this batting practice homer.
Moveitfred is dressed and rarin' to do two hours through the Cali hills on his Piece Of Shit Cali bike.

Padres
A name that strikes fear, for sure.
Moveitfred threw two elbows to get a foul tip, but some little shit out-grabbed our hero for the prize. Moveitfred is certain he's lost some fast-twitch fiber in his advancing age.

Partners
Moveitfred spent the a.m. dialing in his wife's old road bike stashed out here in Cali to sort of fit his son. Got within a reasonable distance of fit, then took the bad-boy (and his new wheels) out for a spin around the reservoir.Lizards and quail effed with our heros.
Son complained about stresses to the man tackle.
FYI.

Gone, Babycakes, Gone
Moveitfred spun out the legs for two hours yesterday in the waning light. Today it's pack and prep for the flight to the other side of things.
Moveitfred gonna be gone a long time on the vacationation. Be back in time as they wind the factory back into production mode.
"The sun has charred
the other side of
the world and come
back to us
and painted the smoke
over our heads
an imperial violet.
It is 5 am
and you are listening
to Los Angeles."

shhhhh...
Moveitfred just sneaked his ass back into the third floor suite here at the beautiful Hampton Inn. What's left of family fred is asleep.
Moveitfred destroyed the complementary breakfast down in the lobby merely moments ago. Know what it's like when shit be all set up a certain way and then YOU enter the space and announce, "No, no mutherfuckers...I own this fuckin' place now!"
Moveitfred is confident his loyal readership knows what he's talking about. Moveitfred went to the front and took one helluva pull on that breakfast. Fucking waffle press was smokin' balls, yo.
Moveitfred Jr. should be tearing through warmups at the pool about now with Mrs. Moveitfred in charge. This afternoon Moveitfred's daughter hits the venue and just may bust out one of the best times in the country this year....

Rollin'
Moveitfred just turned in final grades for the two online classes he taught this summer. Moveitfred prefers not wasting time actually calculating final grades and instead simply records an A for each student.
And you can decide for yourself if that's how Moveitfred rolls.
Tomorrow Moveitfred drives his kids to a big-ass fucking swim meet at parts up yonder for the weekend. Upon return Moveitfred jumps on an airplane and flies the fuck out of Dodge for the rest of the summer.
And you can decide for yourself if that's how Moveitfred rolls.

Dogs
Y'know, you gotta love the labrador. But they are some stupid fucking dogs.Moveitfred slept in and then squeezed 60 minutes on the bicycle midday as soon as the heat index reached its peak. Then he went swimming in a pool. Then he ate some cheesecake.
Right now Moveitfred should be grading the final papers in his summer class that ended last week. But he's too fucking tired of reading the idiotic drivel.
Instead he's been emailing Heywood Jablome. Heywood and fred plan to overthrow the planet, and they're just working out some of the details.

Another Average Day
This is the sight of a happy Moveitfred. Last night's wicked electrical and wind shit broke open the best day in weeks. Add to the greatness Moveitfred Jr. in basketball camp all day, so Moveitfred got out for a good long one in the breeze. Additional added bonus: no fucking flies biting his ass.
Months ago Moveitfred sent out one of his pile of shithole scripts to the greatest screenwriting competition on the planet: The Nicholl. Of the 200 million scripts entered, Moveitfred got word today that his did not make the quarterfinal cut of about 300 or so. However, according to the academy experts at Nicholl, he was one of a few very talented a-holes who got a "ps" added to the rejection with some notes on the script explaining how close it was to making the cut.
It's sort of like getting kicked in the nuts then having a podium girl slather some lard on your swollen nads.

Back in Black
Moveitfred is glad to be back home and mowing the grass. It's warm and steamy, but not Arkansas warm and steamy. Moveitfred even wore a black t-shirt. Badass, yeah, he knows.

Things that suck today:
1. This weather. Moveitfred doesn't like wet.
2. Work. Moveitfred has ignored his responsibilities for too long.
3. Preparing to fly on an a-e-roplane. Moveitfred doesn't like packing, worrying about how to get to the airport, and thinking about fast movement above the earth in a tube.
4. Staying in Arkansas. See below:

Fuckers
Can't stand these fuckers.
Moveitfred took his kiddies to the neighbor's pool last night (poached it while they're away on vacation, yo) and one of these fuckers kept landing on the heads of family Fred and biting the shit out of the melons.
This morning Moveitfred did what was otherwise a pleasant 2 hours with the miss-us, until out on the beach road two of these fuckers nailed Moveitfred through his lycra right in the ass.
Moveitfred realizes he's on the south end of fitness, and his black-bike-shorts ass looks like a nice slab of cow. But still.
Fuckers.

Lie Down
Moveitfred snarfed around the interweb this morning and picked up various freebie feeds of the Tour de Pave. Fun to watch people fall on rocks.
Before that Moveitfred went out for a relatively cool 6am ride with Mrs. Moveitfred. Later in the afternoon he took Moveitfred Jr. to the beach for swim lessons. Now THAT was freakin' crazy from the heat. Moveitfred considered entering the water to cool off, but with 500 fat mothers and screaming kids plying the salty fluid he figured there was enough diluted piss floating about to discolor his trunks.

Moveitfred went to Canada for the first time as a kid while on vacation with his parents. Moveitfred remembers stopping at the border where some guy in a hat asked his dad some questions about where he lived and if he had any fruit in the car. Moveitfred also remembers getting some Canadian money, and he thought it looked funny.
Happy Canada Day, Canada.

Screenplay Content
Moveitfred finished the first draft of a new screenplay this week. The title alludes to killing the protagonist, but the protagonist remains unscathed and not much killing takes place in the script. There are lots of space aliens in the story, however, and they tend to be an inscrutable lot.
Moveitfred was contacted this morning by an important movie person who wants to interview him in an online format regarding his experiences related to screenwriting. Moveitfred is cool with that, although Moveitfred worries he'll come across as an ass.
In other news Moveitfred likes this picture, so he's going to post it again.

History, in short
A host of discerning individuals has been clamoring over/touching Moveitfred and yelling, "Where have you been for all these years?"
Moveitfred feels your pain. He has been away for what feels like years. Doing what, you axe? Living the Life of Enlightenment in this cauldron of feces we call our home planet. Yes, he still rides his bike, he drinks coffee, he walks to the library. Sometimes he engages in meaningful exchanges with his Bicoastal Boy brethren, but mostly not. He writes perhaps the greatest screenplays about important topics that have yet to be acknowledged and produced. In short, doing what he can considering the circumstances.
Right now it's hot. Moisture builds in his groin, and he feels itchy.
Moveitfred will ride his bike.
The alarm that signals fire in the house keeps ringing and ringing and ringing....
Moveitfred can't sleep. It's 4am. Moveitfred can't sleep.
This all started after the Rock Lobster came into the house about 8 hours ago.
Moveitfred believes this new bike has otherworldly powers that have disrupted the oblique strands of pastoral he has worked so hard to cultivate here at La Casa de Fred.
Moveitfred is both disturbed and awed by this phenomenon. He will not rest tonight.
