Work/Life Balance

Well, this topic is often talked about amongst friends/family/work colleagues.

I’ve managed to find a nice second hand bike for riding/pedaling up hills etc – something a bit more suited to the riding on my back doorstep. And finally with some Canadian dollars in my bank account, i can afford it i guess…… and after the 50 hour week i had last week, i guess i’m looking forward to some nice pedally riding!!!

Hopefully this will be the last big purchase before the winter/snow arrives..(cue skis) it is already getting darker each week, 8pm would be about the latest you could ride in the Forrest now!

Anyway – My new bike is a .243 steel framed hardtail bike, made for freeriding apparently. the frame is about 6lbs which is right up there in terms of weight! This aint no light XC racing machine. Thats about all i need to say.

We have 6 bikes in our flat at the mo!! – two of mine, two are Megans, and one other is her bf’s new toy – a Transition Bottlerocket, 5.5inch trail bike in BABY BLUE…. rather spiffy.

The cheapest bike would be the white one in the corner, not actually mine – but bought for $10 off a homeless guy some months ago, not by me!! on loan from last weekends efforts post-bbq….. Long story, won’t go there, seen some drunken times.

Andrew, Sebastian and I are planning on going away to Pemberton for riding this weekend, hopefully the springtime weather and showers stay away!!

So yeah, work/life balance? – Trying to restore balance to the force, the pendulum seems to swing week by week at the mo…. Hope to have some good pics from this coming weekend.

Ciao for now.
