I just returned from a week in Las Vegas. I flew out on Monday the 25th to attend Interbike 2006, the annual bicycle industry trade show. I am so happy that when I made a career change last August that I was able to stay within the bicycle industry. My new career allows me to attend the trade show where I can meet my customers face-to-face and also to see old friends.
One other benefit of attending the trade show is being able to hang out with my co-workers. Since most of us work remotely from our homes, this is one of the few opportunities to get see each other face-to-face. The hotel we stay at has a "Manager's Happy Hour" every evening. This is typically where we all meet up after a busy day at the show.
On Friday evening, we have a company night out. Last year we went to Fast Lap Indoor Kart Racing. It was such a great time last year that we returned there again this year. We start off with a couple of practice races, then it is off to qualifying. Once qualified, there is a Championship event that consists of 20 laps of racing. Last year I placed third..this year I placed first!
