This past Friday evening I was invited to attend the “Last Man Standing Presentation” by Steve Bradbury. I had heard that he was Australian’s first gold medalist in Men’s Short Track Speed Skating....it didn’t really click at the time who he really was......

He introduced himself to me and the next thing I know my friend Tony was asking to get a picture with him and I jokingly said to Steve, “Should I know you? Are you somebody famous??” and he just laughed. Well the blondness did it to me again. He is Steven Bradbury, the last man standing from the Salt Lake City Olympics....... here watch


Do you remember seeing this?? I do... anyway, I was privileged to hear him speak, as he is one of the five owners of the new Aqua Alpine Hotel hear in Goryu, Hakuba. Steve your speech was inspirational, especially as an athlete myself, cheers and all the best in your new investment in our town Hakuba!!!!

'Tis the season, so wishing you all a nice Christmas Season!!!!!!

Well, should be a rock'en weekend!!! Have a good one!!!

Ok, so since my body eruption happened
which left me totally drained......(everything came out, in every direction)
I have come back to life.

(the sole three die hards of the X-Mas bash)
I have had a Pre-X Mas Potluck bash at the house, which was great food, drinks and friends again, but still left me a bit tired. More sleep, off the alcohol and rest has proven beneficial these past few days. I actually finally got out for a ride!!! After an interview at 47 ski hill, making it official that I have a new job on the weekends for the winter, and buying some ski gear from friends, Kouji, Sarah and I found some time to hit the mtb trails since there is no snow!!!!!!

Weeee, what a day and what a comeback. Was so nice to be back on the bike and feeling alive again..... so here are some pictures of the last week, enjoy because I have to get out there and ride again, since it is another killer day...... ha ha......ciao!!!!!

Lately this is how I been feeling...so I haven't updated my site, been under the weather for a week or so now.... stay tuned for a much better feeling monkey......
