Thanks Mick! I sure don't envy you when those things hit!

 it's ok I guess with the ski slopes being nearby and all but still,,,would rather be able to work all year round outside and never have to put my dh away for winter...

  Paulo has the coolest ideas for some nice shots bro,

 "Oh crap, it's Winter again!"

 Hahahahahahaha! But we had some good laughs brother!

 not that happy either with the winter situation bro...we only have approx. 6 weeks before the first snow and it could come even earlier than that if the weather sucks...the bike parks will be closing tomorrow and will start getting ready for ski season....ohhhh noooooo, here we go again, winter depression syndrome coming right up, haha...

 Well...at least we ride all year long on the island bro...it only rains...we have no snow, though the trails get dangerously slippery in some cases, but we just ride elsewhere

 I would switch the canadian winter with yours in a flash bro, lol...don't get me wrong, december and Christmas with fresh snow is just magical but when it stretches past mid march, I just get sick of it...being on the trainer doesn't cut it anymore...

 I know brother. It's one of the perks of living in Azores islands

 I feel sorry for you guys up North.

 Hahahahahahahaha!

 Depends on your point of view; twice on that ride my point of view was upside down!

 

 Two years of riding the toughest trails on the island made you unbreakable brother, hahahahahaha!
