&lt;p&gt;
I planned on taking this shot jumping silhouetted by the sunset, but unfortunately the "sunset" was merely gray getting darker gray. Oh, Portland winter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm proud of what I've accomplished this year:&lt;br /&gt;
-Planned and implemented TWO bicycle encouragement programs: the pilot Walk + Bike to School Challenge and assisted the Bike Commute Challenge.&lt;br /&gt;
-Found a whole new community of fun, bike-loving friends.&lt;br /&gt;
-Built my home.&lt;br /&gt;
-Released a new zine and a mini-comic.&lt;br /&gt;
-Biked down the Pacific Coast. (As well as many other short trips.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have great plans for 2009, but for a moment I'll just linger on feeling satisfied and loved. It's the closing of another year. They just keep getting better and better.&lt;br /&gt;
