Vancouver Visit

I hitched down to Vancouver Saturday night to hang out with the awesome Cory Granfield. It only took me two rides and about two hours again...getting pretty lucky with the hitch-hiking. Anyway, I show up to Cory's house around nine and he offers to take me to one of three parties...motorcycle party, tattoo party, or fixie race and possible late night punk rock show. What ensued was a really rad night of drinking, bike riding, new people, bike riding and too many good times. We ended up doing it all. And actually, we showed up to the punk rock venue at around 2:30 in the morning and there wasn't much of a crowd so we hung out for a short bit and headed home. My hand was pretty beat by this point. The next day we obviously slept in a bit before heading out for breakfast and crabbing with Ben Turner and Cory's Lady Friend Tarrin. We went to a pier in Jericho Park in Kitsilano near UBC to utilize Cory's crab trap. Spent a couple hours hanging and caught one large delicious crab. When all was said and done, we had a team dinner at Cory's house.

Motorcycles and rock n' roll.
