New Year's Eve - Dec 31, 2008
Today is New Year's Eve. Time goes fast without us realizing it. Is today the day we're supposed to reflect what we have and haven't accomplished during the year and set a new resolution for next year? Nah, screw it...let bygones be bygones, right?
California Winter motorcycle ride - Monday Dec 29, 2008
All of us haven't had a chance to go on a long motorcycle trip due to work commitment. So during our Christmas break, Vu suggested that we went on a 1-day 250-mile trip to Santa Barbara's Sterns Wharf pier to get some sun, ocean and seafood.
There were only 3 of us: myself, Vu and his brother Nu. Everybody else either lost interest or couldn't make it. It was about 45 degree F (7.2C) when I left my house to meet Vu at his home, which is about 10 miles away. It was cold but I felt so great riding.
We took 210 West to 134 West, then 2 South to 10 West to ride along the Pacific coast all the way to Santa Barbara. The weather was great. The sun was bright. The ocean was blue and the bike was smooth. Life is good. We don't need a lot to be happy, do we?
