L'Équipée Sauvage (Weekend Street/Reflections # 67)

 

Lyon, France

When I saw this guy hanging out with some friends it reminded me of a French, bicycle version of the movie The Wild One. He said something and pointed at a nearby Brazilian restaurant. I didn't understand what he said but I replied "oui tout à fait, il faut boire de la biere." Then he laughed and shook my hand. It was the first thing that came to mind and I guess it was the right thing to say. 😄

Have a great weekend!

Now you can link reflections and/or street photography. 

Please no posed pictures, portraits, animals, etc. unless of course there is a reflection.

"Street photography, a genre of photography that records everyday life in a public place. The very publicness of the setting enables the photographer to take candid pictures of strangers, often without their knowledge."

    More a Samuel Jackson's look than a Marlon Brando's one!

    Hi James and All. Google translated, "yes absolutely, you have to drink beer."
    I am back from my Sabatical and a bad, bad, 16 Day trans-Atlantic cruise. On the cruise Mrs. Jim tested positive with mild symptoms. She was "isolated" for the rest of the cruise and a day. Four days later I tested positive and was isolated for the rest of the cruise plus five days. Our British isolation was at an older Holiday Inn at Portsmouth, U.K. I think.we got it from unmasked folk in a ship elevator.

    The wild one...is that a pretty old movie? I think I've heard of it.

    C'est un peu la version light ou écologique de "l'équipée sauvage". Un peu comme le film de gangsters "Bugsy malone" tournée avec des enfants ! En tout cas, je suis très admiratif de ta capacité à filmer les gens de face et non en cachette. C'est une super photo joyeuse et conviviale

    Lucky for you that he doesn't think all beer-drinkers are wimps and he only drinks Cachaça

    Guy must have taste because clothing, guy and bike fit seamless together. Nicely done again.
