in Me, me, me
On the ride into work the other day it dawned on me that I have fulfilled a long-held dream. Sure it happened almost a year ago, but the impact of it is still huge.

I’ve been unusually busy for the past six weeks; this is the first weekend in four weeks that I haven’t had something to do. I spend the work weeks in between feeling slightly dazed and a little shell-shocked, but it was good.
It started with the Advanced Rider School through Pacific Riding School; I wrote about that over at 604 Ninja, so go read it there. The next weekend we did our first Pitt Meadows track day (which I haven’t written about, but will after this). The weekend after that we did the Bikers for Burns ride from Vancouver to Harrison. On Canada Day we watched round five of WMRC at Mission Raceway (I hadn’t been there since 1998 or 1999 and my memories of it are a little sketchy, probably due to the amount of alcohol consumed afterwards.)
In a weird coincidence (or is it reverse-stalking, we never did figure that out, or who exactly is the reverse-stalker…) one of the instructors from PRS/ARS was at the track day and the burns ride, and invited us to visit his pit at Mission. It’s odd when you bump into someone who has the same sense of humour as us; to outsiders I’m sure we looked pretty ridiculous, but it was fun.
Along with all of that I’ve had plenty to deal with at work, a wedding to attend, and a niece due to be born any day.
