While this has little to do with MX, I thought it worth posting a couple of brief videos of the kids playing on their BMX bikes at some local tracks.

Well, Teresa is now offically over the hill, having turned 40 on the 22nd July. We had an informal affair at home with our new WA friends and a couple of eastern-state blow-ins. I cooked a delicious 3-meat roast under the roasting hood (after the rotisserie broke in half early into proceedings) and we had a good supply of salads and desserts supplied by generous guests. With around two dozen adults and similar number of kids, the entertainment area was fully-populated. Adult guests positioned themselves near the gas heater or the wood fire while the kids kept themselves amused with night games.

So now you know where we are, you may be interested in knowing how we ended up here. The story begins not so long ago, two weeks before Easter in 2007. Most of you would know that I work for an IT consulting firm, JASCO Consulting. One of our larger customers was making significant headway into the construction industry in the booming WA economy, and were looking for us to provide (or recommend) someone to manage their IT needs in WA.

Many of you would have seen or heard of Google's new (and somewhat controversial) StreetView.
