Default What are you thankful for?

With Thanksgiving coming up on Thursday, I'm curious... what are you thankful for?

I'm thankful for good friends and a fantastic family. This year has been good to us, in many ways.

I'm thankful for the opportunities I have. My riding has gone to the next level. Not just on the track - but on the street as well. As of a week ago I was brought on by BMW as staff for 2010 - up until now I was backup, they would contact me two weeks before an event and I'd have to quickly decide if it fit into my schedule. For next year I'll be on the calendar. I'm now managing the motorcycle division of Harris Hill Road [the track] and not just simply a motorcycle trackday company.

What are you thankful for, both for riding and otherwise...

I'm glad I have a job, even if it's a crappy one.

I'm thankful to be able to ride a bike, can't imagine being stuck in a cage all the time.

Well, it's nearing a year that I've been riding now. It's great to be around to ride more, I guess . It's cool to have made a great friend, and I'm almost done with this damn AS degree. I also just joined the honors society, and as such I'm grateful for any future scholarships that may fall into my hands (which there better damn be since I'm a broke mf).

Enough of this though.. bring on turkey day.

The #1 thing would be my significant other. She's the best and I wouldn't be where I am without her.

And my family and friends... The rest all falls into play after that.

Oh and ESPECIALLY the OP for creating one of the best track companies around.

I am thankful for my family, great parents, wonderful wife, awesome son.

For all my friends.

For my lowside ending in a nice soft ditch and not a guardrail or a cliff.

For having a spare bike.

For cranberry sauce.
