Tour de France: July 4 - 26, 2009

I’ll be working part time from July 4 through July 26… and from home… so I can watch the 2009 Tour de France.

The Greatest Tour Ever!

Lance is back, and confirmed for the tour.

Levi is strong, and just won his third tour of California.

Alberto Contador is strong, and looking to get some payback for the raw deal Team Astana received in 2008.

I’ll be working part time from July 4 through July 26… so I can watch the 2009 Tour de France.

In addition, I’ve suggested the idea that my team take their vacations over the same period, and they have taken advantage of this idea and planned time off.

As such, NPS will be open over this period, but working a reduced schedule, with much less than normal capacity. I’ll likely work from home over this period. For existing clients, we will focus on site updates and small modifications over this period, and we’ll schedule this period as ‘booked’ for large or new development work.

New projects of course will be handled with care, and timelines will be set to work around our summer vacation period.

We currently have no work scheduled for July (we tend not to work more than 2 months out). By serving over 3 months notice of our vacation, I trust that any planned or unplanned projects can have their schedules set in such a way that NPS provides better than expected performance in summer of 2009.
