nForm my new home.

I have been working at United Cycle for close to 4 years now, i have gone from green thumb enthusiast to one to the key people involved in almost everything from training, service writing and just plain do it all. I have learned from some really great people. I have had the opportunity to accomplish more in 4 years at United Cycle that pretty much any other bike shop in Canada and probably North America, i say this not only based on volume of customers and variety of work but with the amount of mechanics that work there as well. Any given time there is probably close to 100 years of experience to draw from. I have seen the store progress in there way of thinking to grow with a changing market and I’m proud to say i was a part of that. I am grateful for the friends i have made in the staff and the regular customers that ask for me.

Cold

Ya I love Canada, but let me tell you something about it being -35 to -40c this past week just isn’t doing it for me. I find my self walking more to keep worm, yet I then get to hot. And being to hot and sweaty in the winter isn’t good so then I’m forced to remove hoods, change out head gear and so on. I also realized that i need to get some ski goggles because my eye lashes freezing to my hood, or the bottom eye lashes isn’t so much fun. After that’s all said and done you throw in some people seam to forget that its winter about 7 months of the year and there driving skills are never up to par. people drive like retards! to slow, to fast, and then they start to get ancy and inch forward to far or they change lanes at the last chance. Man its fun.

Official Lyrics of O Canada!

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!

From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

Here is a song by Five Iron Frenzy that I think you will enjoy.

Go OILERS Go

So after yesterdays hockey game the Edmonton Oilers of course winning the game 2 to 0 against the San Jose Sharks. But that’s besides the point, the interesting fact was that on whyte ave. Edmonton hot spot for all that is cool had about 25000 people partying (that’s more than was at Rexall Place) and there was an estimated 300 police and crowd control personnel to avoid another celebration break down like the last one. The other interesting fact is it only cost Edmontonians a cool million!
