*Liam's Wild Ride*

Ooooh, just noticed my favorite Bay Area store is having a sale. Check it out here.

They sell all sorts of clothing, apparel, and accessories. I particularly like the headlight selection.

Barcelona - still strange.

Caught this girl walking her dog the other day.

Walking down the street I passed a nice, homebrew race replica.

Oh, that's right! I like to work on anything with two wheels, and nothing brings that back into focus like crawling around on the sidewalk helping the Noyes brothers work on one of Denny's scooters. Kenny demonstrates the "Robot" while we play out a typical scene from many of the countries I've been to. You just work on it where you can, with whatever you can. It's a little primitive, but that's how it is.

And then it started raining.

Yup, slow days in Barcelona. Not much else to do but grab a Somosa (a spicy, potato filled Arabic item with peas and whatnot, reminds me of a deep friend Manapua), and a Coke. Cue Slingblade voice - that's guuuuud.

The leaves are falling, and the cold snap is here. Wintertime, baby! This isn't doing my thumb any good, but what are you gonna do? The streets are slick, and as the leaves degrade, they create a fine powder/dust. When it mixes with moisture, it's gets real slippery, real quick. How to get anything done in this country? Wednesday and Friday were holidays. . . . and Xmas is just a couple weeks off. Today's big dilemna? What to eat for dinner :)

And as bad as it can get, or as lonely, or cold, or whatever, I know I'm sticking it out.

Just noticed that the new MotoGPod Podcast is up. You can check it out from their website or subscribe via iTunes. Yay!!!

P.S., I'm extra happy because I'm in it :)

P.P.S. I think the girl with the pig looks like Lenny Kravitz. And just by chance I saw her (supposed) boyfriend walking the pig yesterday a couple blocks away from where I spotted the girl.

Congrats Liam!!!! You have the job I want in the motorsports industry.

Your journey has inspired me to go for a dream of mine (race car mechanic) and hopefully I'll end up doing stuff similar to what you've landed w/D'antin. :)

I think I'll be moving to the bay area in late '07 to attend skool @ Infineon raceway. I'll be posting a bunch of stuff in the other forums on here to ask about housing, etc when the time is right. :)

Congrats again Liam!!!!!
