With my work I get to travel the state.
I thought I would show a couple of photo's of what I have to put up with.
It was 28degC and I was only 20 minutes from my farm.
It is a hard life here.
These photo's were taken at Aldinga South Australia.
It is about an hour south of Adelaide.

Yes, I'm just waiting for icbc to rule that it was the other parties fault and it will be repaired and looking new again.

Nice! The beach and the Great Southern Ocean and that blue Australian sky that is, not the wrecked trucks...

I'll add to that - ~50mm of rain and up in it the day before Grey Cup.

The gmc. Well, it's my work truck, I don't own it thankfully. It's had so many problems for an almost brand new truck. The gm dealership even told me the trucks they sell are crap.

Nick, with your luck with work trucks any thoughts about using a bicycle?

Pulling a trailer full of garbage between Vancouver and Ladner 3-4 times a day on a bike sounds exhausting, and with my luck that would be wrecked as well.

Nick it will be exhausting at first but you will get in shape with time plus if you pack right you can get it down to 2 loads a week using the bicycle:

It would have to be some serious packing, that's not even 2 days worth of loads for me.

Not to mention riding up cypress after work to go skiing 4 times a week.

I'd give LAN e Armstrong a run for his money!
