All set for a week in the tropics

Booked my flight to Canada's tropical wonderland yesterday. I will be jetting off to Victoria to feed my desire to fly faster than ever before on two wheels and my addiction to flying. Heading out over reading week later this month.
It's been a good year for travel. In the last 12 months I have flown domestically 3 times including this next trip and twice to Europe. I am supposed to be a poor cyclist who also happens to go to school full time...that is money management and some incredibly good luck for you! Every reader of this needs to know they to can live the dream, think not only big, but huge...always. $260 gets you to Amsterdam in the back of a charter, you get free french wine (red or white) with your dinner at that price. Air Transat doesn't even charge you for your bike, which Air Canada does now on all flights. You could ship a canoe or kayak for free with them if you wanted to, that is service. Hopefully some day soon I won't have to foot the bill for all of these adventures in pursuit of two wheeled glory.
Been putting in the biggest hours January has ever seen in my cycling history so that day is coming sooner than later. Thats the plan. Did you know 4 Alberta riders are signed on Continental squads for this year! And no I was not able to repeat last year's incredible fortune, but I am developing other plans.....some similar components, just not the Continental tag.
More adventures to come, stay tuned!
This post was incredibly random, I am messed after today's session. Now I need to go study the digestive system enzymes....incredible stuff, did this lab today, bile salts are incredible little molecules...

Good on you Per! I haven't ridden in over a month. The old achilles is acting up again, I'm just hoping I can ride at all this year. Have fun in Victoria, it's one of my favourite places in Canada but I've never ridden there.
