G'day From Tassie Australia!!

Sit back,take a load off,and read on....

HI!!My name is Mike and I work at the North-West Institute Of Tafe in a town called Burnie...Im 21 years old,and soon there will be a pic of me IN THIS VERY SPOT!I love riding along the NW coast of Tasmania,when I have the energy to,or when I can drag myself away from the net,and Im sure you all understand that!!In late November of this year,I will be going on a ski safari for 2 months to Alberta Canada....specifically Lake Louise and Sunshine Village.I will also be cruz'n down some runs at Panorama in British Columbia.It will be a very exciting trip for me,but the skiing is only the half of it!I will be meeting my sweetheart Jennifer,who I just can't say enough about!I will be adding a pic of her to this page soon,so all you guys out there can see how lucky I am!She is a truly remarkable girl....
Update!!!
---Here is the 1st pic of Jen,which is 3 years old...

---Pic three is only 1 1/2 months old!!
As you can see,she is totally beautiful!!....Counting down,only

sleeps to go till Im on my way over there!!.....UPDATE!!!.....Im HERE in Calgary!!This place is awesome!Very different from home.....Ive been here for 3 days now and the temperatures have been very pleasant.Averaging about -5C,which feels like +2C compared with Tasmanian weather....Very dry here....I went skiing yesterday at SUNSHINE VILLAGE AB. and it was truly amazing!Skiiers everywhere,try GOATSEYE!!You will LOVE it!The quad chair there is VERY fast,and in the main part of the resort they have a new "Continental divide chair" high speed quad.The powder there yesterday was terrific for early season skiing.Skiing down from the quad chair there you can ski in two provinces,BC and Alberta.....I am staying with my girl from "cyberspace" and she is as remarkable in real life as on the net.....I'll update this part whenever I get a spare chance....
