It is about 38 miles door to door....1/2 hr drive no traffic....but usually 45 to an hour....for now...my hours will shift in several weeks and should be able to avoid the traffic ! Yeah nice brewhouse 2 minute walk from front of office ! Sweet urban freeride terrain right out back and all around also....evidence coming as soon as the insurance comes active ! Kind of have to geek suit it for a while, can dress down later down the road....and since the sponsor the NHL, they have hockey days where you can where jerseys and stuff....the next one they are going to see the Cardiff jersey !
Cheers and thanks bro !!

 Great news brother, you only deserve the best !! Cardiff Devils will be a conversation I'd love to listen in on when you wear it !! Old school Devils rock !!

 Thanks brother ! It will be a question day all day when it happens.....who is that team?? I can hear it now ! LOL !

 Thanks mate ! Big switch from the shop life, but I can cope with the switch. Can't wait to be back on the bike on a regular basis!

 Thanks brother, really means a lot. It has been a long hard road, missed out and had to pass on a lot of good times to do schoolwork after working all day and week....but....paying off ! Looking forward to just being able to focus on life again, no 100 hours a week BS. Hopefully before I am too old to be able to get over to ride with you and pop to the isle to ride with Simon and the rest of the crew....down the road we really should try to schedule a meet on some continent and ride vacation!!!

How is the new little one getting along ? Hope all is good with you and the family! Please tell the Mrs. I said hello !
