The Games of the XXX Olympiad start in a few hours in London. I am looking forward to watching the track and field, cycling and swimming events over the next few weeks to catch glimpses of sexy man muscle in tight kit...oh yeah, and appreciate athleticism and personal drive too. Who will you be watching?
Here's a good preview!
The Men's Road Race takes place tomorrow Saturday, July 28. Men's Time Trial is on August 1. Track cycling runs from August 2 to August 7. Men's Triathlon is on August 7. Athletics run from August 3 and end with the marathon on the 12th. Men's swimming runs from July 28 to August 4.
This Saturday, the
Honda Celebration of Light starts in English Bay. The event typically draws 250,000 people downtown to watch the competition. Vietnam, Brazil and Italy are in the competition for 2012. It seems that it has been many years since Canada has not been in the event? At any rate, I'm sure the fireworks displays will not fail to entertain.
It's hard to believe but Vancouver Pride Week starts next week too. I have tickets for a few events, but I think we may skip some of the main events. I'm looking forward to opportunities to rubber up, like Gear Night at Pumpjack on Saturday, Family Feud at the Junction on Tuesday (Rubbout has been asked to submit a 'family'), and the various parties on Pride Weekend like Ruff:Pride, and private parties on Saturday and Sunday. Should be fun!! :)
