On my way to Victoria BC for the winter

Beautiful Victoria
Bromont, QC; By the time you read the following, I'm probably somewhere driving through the United States on my way to the Vancouver Island. I initially thought this summer about going north Alberta to work on the oil rigs and make some big bucks, but I eventually changed my mind. I was suppose to go with LP, but some girl put a chain around his neck (just kidding LP) so the more I thought about going overthere alone, the less I felt like going... working 12 hour shift, 7 days a week in the middle of nowhere seemed unrealistic.

Packing up
I then found a contact in Calgary to do drywalling and until last week I was suppose to go until Hugo Donais gave me a call: "Dude, don't go there! It's gonna get freakn cold in no time and I bet I can find you a job that pays the same or even more in Victoria." Without having the chance to say a word, he hung up. Two minutes later, the phone rang again and the first thing I hear is: "Man, I found you a job, get you ass overhere as soon as you can!" I then called Marty (Russ Hay's bike shop) who was my boss last winter and he gladly offered me a room to stay. So that was it! Ten minutes and I was all set up. So here I am, going back to Victoria again! :) I love this place, I'll ride all winter, it's gonna be a blast!!!

On the road again It's now time for another 5000km road trip!!! I'll pack up my boxes with enough clothing for 6 months, my bikes, I'll then get some food for the trip, my gums, 2-3 Monster energy drinks, some gigabytes of music and I'll be ready to go! Aaaahhh I love road trips! :p
