Special Invitation To......

Tomorrow is September 28th - my birthday. I will be 28 years old. It is the same age my father was when he married my mother. I know this doesn't mean anything to you all, but as of today every time we get into one of our deep conversations about my plans for the future and stuff, I will have: "Son, I was already married by your age" thrown in, at the very moment I am winning the argument for living the carefree bachelor life I am enjoying at the moment.


I have decided to make this birthday the best birthday of my life. After so many lame ass birthdays, I have finally realized what I need to do. In order to have a better time, I need to party with the people who have the same birthday as me....DUH!
And what better day for it than this Friday - the last friday of the month. It's time for the Critical Mass. It happens to be the 10th Anniversary Ride and supposedly Our Beloved Mayor Daley will be attending (which makes me wonder if Critical Massing is on its way to become an Olympic Sport in 2016????). Anyhow, it is sure to be a spanking good time for me and the people who are getting the special invitation to party the night away with me on my and our birthday:

1) Mira Sorvino (born 09/28/1967)

A big fan of yours. Stunnigly beautiful Oscar winning actress. Loved you in Mighty Aphrodite and The Replacement Killers. Not only do we have the same birthday, but our first names are off by ONE letter! To quote you :"There's a side of my personality that goes completely against the East Coast educated person and wants to be a pin-up girl in garages across America...there’s a side that wants to wear the pink angora bikini!" If you bring some of this attitude with you, you don't need to bring me a gift!

2) Naomi Watts (born 09/28/1968)

By far the most lethal combination of beautiful blue eyes and a gorgeous smile out there (just ask King Kong). I still haven't figured out the ending to Mullholand Drive after watching the damn movie so many times. Maybe I am just focusing on the wrong scene in the movie and cannot get the deeper message David Lynch is trying to send. I am sure you can get me some scoop later during the ride.

3) Gwyneth Paltrow (born 09/28/1972)

My favorite British actress! We can talk about how great the British humour is (Monty Python, Black Adder, Only Fools and Horses), Arsenal vs. Chelsea vs. Tottenham vs. West Ham rivalry, and the new Coldplay album.

4) Dita Von Teese (born 09/28/1972)

WOW! A really really big fan! You might not know it, but we go way back. I am still a little mad at you for marrying that douche Marilyn Manson, but there is always going to be a place in my heart and my hard drive for you Dita. If you know any of the Suicide Girls please bring them along with you. There will be plenty of tattooed guys on choppers at the Mass, I don't want them to be jealous of all the attention I'll be getting.

5) Janeane Garofalo (born 09/28/1964)

I know what you think. He invited all these hot women ahead of me, but the truth is that a cute funny girl with black frames will always be number 1 in my book! Besides, where else can you gather more Bushbashing AnnCoulterhating bunch other than at the Critical Mass. You'll be my and their superstar.

6) Hillary Duff (born 09/28/1987)

My niece is a big fan. Now that you are of legal age to..........VOTE, we can share a pitcher of pink lemonade (you're still not legal to drink alcohol), discuss the upcoming Iowa Caucuses and eventually talk smack about Lindsay Lohan.

7) Briggite Bardot (born 09/28/1934)

French Marilyn Monroe! My dad is a big fan. I'd like to say like father like son but you used to be hot and now you're not. I know you'd like to blame immigrants and homosexuals for that but in reality, it's a natural process called AGING that you have a problem with. If you do come, bring two presents, one from you and one on behalf of Mira Sorvino.

So Ladies,......


Let's make MY and our birthday one to remember.


I have ordered one of those $17.99 yellow birthday cakes covered in Team Lampre color frosting, which we can devour after the ride.


Please bring your helmets, and if I am running a little late keep yourselves busy finishing that Happy Birthday banner.


See you at the Daley Plaza!!!!!!!!

Why Blog?

I intended to write a meaningful first post on why I decided to join the ranks of bloggers, but nah - it’s better to get straight down to business. This blog will serve as a way for me to tell you (acquaintances and strangers) those thoughts, experiences, and observations that I cannot bother you with in an 11pm phone call or a long ass email. I will try to focus on the positive and stay away from serious politics, celebrity gossip, talking smack about my bosses, and posting shirtless pictures of myself. I will however talk about my big passions: cycling, soccer, music, film, traveling, friends, family,…….etc.

Brief explanation of the blog’s title. Biciklista means “the cyclist” in my native tongue. I added the “the” in front because biciklista.blogspot.com was already taken by a Hungarian mountain biker. Apparently, paprikash is not the only word we share with the Hungarians. I now like the “the” in front of it. It sounds better.
