Real Talk!

Fabian and I are registered participants in a motorcycle “ride for charity”. We will be leaving July 17th for Toronto and meeting with a group of Realtors ® at 8 am on the 18th. From there, we proceed to the Adirondack Mountains and on to New Hampshire and then Quebec. The total ride is some 1400 kms with riders from the Ontario Real Estate Association (OREA).

Proceeds are raised by way of sponsorship and all proceeds go to the OREA: REALTORS CARE Foundation. Riders pay their own personal expenses (gas, hotel, food, refreshments etc).

As always, preparing to take time away from the office is difficult and we’re tangled in a flurry of activity & although we have an amazing support group in the office, we will carry a laptop and the beloved Blackberry. We’re never that far away from our customers and clients!

This is bound to be interesting. I have never been on a motorcycle for more than about a half hour! Reactions seem to vary from questioning my sanity- to remarking about how wonderful motorcycle trips can be… apparently; there is no better way to enjoy the scenery. Thank goodness, we seem to have gotten a break from the down pours…

As always, I’m trying to keep an open mind.
