Went south and going even deeper south

I'm back from a week-end in Valencia where I had to attend the last Grand Prix of the MotoGP season. My god do I love the atmosphere on those Grand Prixs, specially if you can have the privileges of being in the paddock and having access to a lot of extras :-0 ..... Although that I must admit that I have been running around like crazy to entertain all our guests that came flying from all over Europe. I think one day I will buy my self the Sony Ericsson phone with the step o meter ... hint hint .. It's the W710i ....

But maybe not .. I'm more in need of true GPS devices since the planned trip to Morocco is getting really close. I inscribed myself into a course for enduro riding from 26th of November till 30 the of November in Aras (90km west of Valencia) as a preparation for the trip ... Agnes will come down to Valencia to join me for the trip back up ......

When Morocco the trip will take place will depend largely on the timing of the new challenge .. I see it as some sort of a break between two jobs .. a time to reflect on my life before I turn the terrible sounding 30+10 ...

I have become painfully aware of my age in the last period. Not only do some people in my professional circle already give me the label "too experienced" also I had the feeling that sometimes it feels like I'm no longer the young one I think I am ... However nothing is lost: I feel younger than ever before, especially with the idea of crossing the Atlas Mountains on my bike ..
