Happy 1000th!

Clink!




It's a happy day for two reasons: this is my 1000th post and my birthday!

A double celebration that I'll christen this magical day with a ride up to Simon Fraser University (without the wine, of course). What a milestone as I sit, with a glass of Malbec, pondering what I've achieved!

I started this cyclingart blog back in September, 2007. Of course, I had no idea it would morph into what it has become. I'm running short of superlatives, however, I'm somewhat still amazed and marvel that I could keep my blog going this long and still have something to say. It's always a bit tricky to write enough content, create art, have the daunting task of running a small business, and including other things in life without going crazy...and keep it all going. I'm more than happy that folks out there (you know who you are) follow this blog regularly.

So, I would like to warmly thank all my readers who have been with me over the almost four years. And, to the new readers a hardy welcome. Today, I will highly likely enjoy another glass of Malbec and carry on writing more posts and smile because ... the 2000th post is just down the road!
