Wintergreen

Had a great weekend with the parents up at Wintergreen. I got some good skiing in and once again proved to myself that balls are better than ability on the ski slopes slash I was pretty F-in out of control.

This was the first time going back up to wintergreen after the hill climb last May, just as anticipated the hill was still a monster. But to be fair Jim, yes Marin dr is indeed steeper the whole way than any part of wintergreen.

I had thought about bringing the bike up for a trip or two up and down the mountain but decided against it after seeing that the weather wasn't supposed to get above freezing all weekend.

Marin MTB

I got the chance to head up to Marin today and hit the trails with J-dub. Let's just say the ride was legit slash I was probably the most out of control person to ever hit the trail. Big ups to Jdub for having the confidence to let me use this nasty ride. Intense puts out a great bike and it got me out of more trouble today than I could have imagined. Its amazing what 6 inches of travel and 8 inch brake rotors do.

My mind is still blown on smithwicks ale. good stuff.

It blows my mind that Jim can spend hours cranking out cover letters for legit J-O-B's but can't go a week without a Full Throttle / I'm about to go get one myself.
