The never ending story

Its an allegory for owning a house.

It never ******* ends!

40% Done

Almost there. Appliances should show up early next week. Big push this weekend!

Yey!

Silly things I have done on two wheels

Oh crap I need to finish my break-in ASAP!

Cue in worst plan ever to cram in as much KMs as I can in one evening:

It sounded like a very good plan, except:

• It was early May
• I left town at 5 pm
• I had no idea what my range was and if there was enough gas stations along the way.
• It get dark quite fast in early May
• This was not the best way to accomplish my goal
  
• The bike was 2-3 weeks old
  

In the end I made it back in town just in time to call my wife good night. I had been driving in the dark for the last hours, I had broken several speed limits and was cold.

That night I broke 800km on the odo and finally was able to rev past 6.5k

But the huge smile I had on my face made it worth it's while!

If I were to do it again, I would probably be stupid enough to try to cram as many KMs in one evening, but this time I would plan my ride using Google Map and would definitely hit the 300KM mark!

Life Skills

Don't know if I should be ashamed or not ...

I had to google to find where the cookies are stored in IE 7.

You'd really though I would remember that from my teenage years ...

Or may be I have been using Firefox for too long ...

You be the judge!
