When Rennie's Bored....
Posted by: Claire
Well the race season is pretty much over and here we find ourselves back in the small town of Semmering, Austria to kill some time before heading off to the Red Bull event in Budapest. And its raining. Hard. No one really felt like riding the bike park today and other than that there isn't much else to do in this town, except sleep in, gin around, maybe provoke some old people and head off to the pub. I personally layed low all day, read a book or two, slept, ate, the season and all it's traveling has worn me out. But Rennie, on the other hand, well he kept himself entertained as always. After some breakfast.........and some lunch..........Rennie had enough of sitting around. So him and Aussie photographer, Tim Burrows, after a can or two of Carlsberg, proceeded to the grocery store to buy some glue. They then proceeded to the local igloo shaped bar called the Pinguin for another beer and glued a euro coin to the pool table, sat back and enjoyed the gag. He got em good ha ha, to the point where one guy took some tools out of his bag to pry the coin off. After that fun wore off, they began wandering around town, gluing various things together. There are coins outside the bike shop, the grocery store, on the ATM machine and up at another bar near the lift. I also hear that there are a few things glued to the shelves at the grocery store like candies and cereal boxes....and when Chris went to slip on his thongs this morning, well, they were stuck together by the sole. Who knows what else Nathan screwed with on his mischievious glue-ing rounds but I bet many innocent people will be subject to his gags for days to come, especially the coin at the ATM ha! Anyways, thats what Rennie gets up to when he's bored.
