busted!


One of the things I love about living in Vancouver is that it never gets overly cold, yeah it rains a lot. But the fact that you can take your bike out for a rip on January 3rd and not freeze to death is too good. So to make the most of the weather, I went through the checklist of things I would need to make the ride ultra sweet:
Gloves – check
Helmet – check
Balaclava – check
Jacket – check
Insurance – didn’t check
15 minutes into the ride I get pulled over (by 2 cop cars) and get reminded that my insurance had expired = the bike gets parked on the side of the road until a tow truck can pick it up. Luckily the police lady chose to cut me a break and didn’t give me the $600 ticket for no insurance.

Good times!

Lucky dude! Glad to hear that you didn't get busted for it. Sounds like you're enjoying the whole ride thing. Too much "Tron Legacy"? (take a look at the trailer; boy, can I remember wishing I had a light cycle when the original came out.)

Happy New Year! Amrit.

just saw the trailer amrit, and although i digged the first one, i just haven't bought into the new one yet. that being said i'll go see it, hopefully it won't remind me of the days of the new west house too much...
