Owwwww, I feel your pain, Had to go for a couple of hour ride yesterday. It was hard to concentrate while thinking of my Daughter busy shovelling her driveway out in NW Cowtown.... :peep: :cold:
The past couple of winters (or non-summers) have been testing my resolve in living here. This is more like I would expect in Manitoba.....
It's not like Manitoba's far away, you can throw rocks at Winnipeg from the top of Shaganappi (sp?)

Currently in between GoProHD testing and mount testing. (Just came back in from riding and uploading videos, now I'll go back out and try different mounts). I think you will really enjoy this review when I am done with it soon.

Started a new job yesterday, naturally had my second day today. All the free stuff is incredible, though it will take some getting used to, this "having a cubicle" thing! Got a nice ride in, and picked up SOCOM 4 for PS3 WOOT!

First days are always fun! Congrat's

The nice thing with bikes for me has been that they have been fun for a longggggg time after the first times. Just commuting on a bike is much nicer than cars - cars are so boring. And today after many years of different bikes and riding I rode something a bit different, and it was a good reminder to get back into the groove I was heading for already this year - dirt bikes.

Congratulations on taking the MSF class! Give yourself a big pat on the back for starting out the smart way.

Hopefully you will have time to create a blog here (motorcycle blogs: viewforum.php?f=32 ) and write about your class.

Way to go! Did you mention what job this was? (If so, sorry, I did forget).

Free swag! That's awesome. :D

I am a Customer Solutions Specialist for a major chemical distributor. In other words I am an order taker for a (granted fancy, ultra-modern, and different ideologically) call center. Good news is I think the work will be relatively interesting as it seems 50%+ of my work will be fixing errors (since everything is so highly automated errors can happen easily)- which means a lot of variety of work. Great news is long term potential is really high, my neighbor has been there three years and done very well.

Here is what I've been doing for the past 24 hours (straight uploading)

viewtopic.php?f=57&t=41924

Yes, that's me on my bike in the UK testing the GoPro HD and various GoPro mounts.

Enjoy.

Well on Wed I bought this for my wife (paid cash and the salesman jaw like dropped saying he had never had someone pay cash before.... Like wtf thats why I havent had a vehicle loan for the past 5 years). Ignore the price cause I didnt pay that much.

course now today I found out they most likely screwed up the connectors in the vehicle because the tech 2 scanner my friend owns is coming up with wiring harness trouble codes in the seat air bag wiring. Which means the stealership I bought this from will be fixing it free o charge.
