My Favorite Guy in Whitehorse

I came in to a hotel lobby with a question, and this man was behind the desk.  


He didn't respond to my question in any way.  He sat perfectly still for 15 seconds, then handed me a phone book.  

I found what I was looking for, then came back.  This time, he opened up a bit and shared some helpful knowledge about nearby towns and routes.  

We ended up chatting for 45 minutes.  Turns out he's ridden motorcycles all his life -- through India, SE Asia, the Philippines, all over.  He's somehow managed to survive 15 crashes.  

I came back the next day just to spend another session chatting with him.  A truly amazing guy.
