Ok chicks... I know I'm tuning my skis today and waxing tomorrow... Fixed my boot with some JB weld and bit the bullet and ordered a new pair of bindings and poles... The indoor soccer club starts soon... But what is everyone else gearing up to do this winter? i'm also hoping for enough snow to get the snow shoes out for some hikes and possibly an overnighter hike up north...
The jb weld did not hold the boot together... i'm heart broken... took the fixie out for a great ride saturday.. a bit chilly but well worth it.. Still looking forward to some night skiing possibly Thursday night! whoo hoo!!
I'll be dreaming of biking, but snowboarding as much as I can! Almost 4 feet of snow this week alone.. we're pretty much spoiled this winter with the amount of snow we've already gotten! Been up the mountain 3 days straight... still don't have my powder legs back and still only 8months off knee surgery, so i'm trying (unsuccessfully) to take it easy.. did my first drop of the season yesterday and it reminded me that i'm not quite ready for it yet... soon though
I also do lots of stretching and yoga to keep me all happy and unsore from throwing myself down a hill all day!
^^ awesome! take care of that knee... I'm delaying both knee replacements until i basically can't walk... sounds horrible, but i wear the hell out of the set i have now first! i'm headed up to the mt tonight to try out these old ski legs... i built a nice kicker in the back yard this past weekend due to the foot of snow we got here... it was nice to just mess around, but i'm ready for some speed and glades! bring on the mogules!
I would have put off surgery if I could.. but I had a piece of bone floating around, so figured while they were getting that out, and since i'd be out for 6months with a patella fracture anyways, they should fix my ligament.
Have fun tonigh.... where do you ski? I heart glades and am even getting used to the mogules... but nothing compares to open bowls with a few feet of fresh in them! oh powder days!!!!!
Video games. I got three new ones for xmas. I know not very girly But I'm trying to find another hobby for the winter. I'm going to try out skiing this year. Been putting it off for years. I like the indoor soccer idea, I wonder if they have that around here... I don't know I need to find something before I go crazy!

May not be very "girly" but personally thats more attractice then girly girl every will be. Riding actually hasn't been bad except for a frozen brake line I dont know if you can call it fun but working out keeps me in shape and improves strength more then just biking could.
found out lastnight that it IS possible to ski while being toted by a snowmobile... my hips are killing me today and i'll probably regret it for the rest of the week, but my next day off, i'm sure as hell headed back out again!
