Hey gang. Welcome back to another little story hot off the presses. Two in one night, aren’t you a lucky bunch? I’m making a concerted effort to catch up with the latest goings-on of one ActiveSteve, as I’m also trying to work on ActiveSteve 3.0 in parallel. Yup, you read right, I’m working on a fresh new face for the website once again. Why not, eh? It’ll be mainly cosmetic, as well as making some improvements under the hood that you won’t see. I’m already excited about it, but I have a lot of work to do, so first things first, let me get this blog post off my chest. Many of you will be aware that this past weekend was my birthday. As such, Jody said I could do whatever I wanted. Well, as luck would have it, a group of my AR friends were getting together for a ~100km mountain bike ride in Gatineau Park, starting from Aylmer, so I decided I should join in. To save you the suspense, yes, there is both a map of the ride as well as a whole pile of pictures. After you’ve checked those out, come on back and finish reading my tale!

Well, hot off the heels of volunteering at a weekend adventure race, Jody and I decided to head out for another selfless act of volunteerism. I wasn’t scheduled to do any volunteering or racing for the National Capital in the first place, but as usual, plans can change rather rapidly. Truth be told, I really didn’t feel like even watching any of the marathon drama unfold this year. This was mainly due to the fact that I’m still unable to do any running whatsoever myself, so I really don’t feel like watching others go to it and get their goals. However, when the call for help came out at the last minute at work, I decided to set aside my selfishness and volunteer. As usual, we’ve got some pictures online, and there’s more to my story, so read on.
