    Took a look at g3000... Nice.... I see you were rocking the helmet cam a bit. Looks good... And nice job traversing over all the "cute" skier "s" tracks... Too many turns, not even speed.. :) Anyway, love seeing powder this time of the year... Thanks for the reminder of what it looks like...

    Snow is finally metling away up in Tahoe, but you can still grab 6000 ft of vert off Mt Shasta as of last weekend... Corn.. yummy...

    i hate that "powder farming" crap. to anal. to boring. i'll keep within the lines for the first couple of runs but after that it's a free-for-all baby! i like to open it up and just point the nose downhill and scream.

    Man after my own heart. I never colored within the lines as a kid either... I'm the guy crossing every which way to find a bump or a drift to hit or slash. Love it... There's more to riding than just pretty turns...

    I'm finally getting around to fixing a busted spoke and tru'ing my back wheen on my MTB so I can get out a do some summer riding. The poor bike was neglected most of last year and my belly shows it...

    Oh man...
    These will reside on my hard drive for later in the season. Nice work!

    BTW, you been out with the Bullet lately? Any video? I don't frequent MTBR anymore so post a cross-link if you have something posted there.

    been pretty busy with work this summer. i've been out almost every weekend but not both days like i used to. i kinda need my saturday mornings to sleep in. there is construction at the tunnel at the end of the lake which makes traffic a b!tch getting to the mountains anywhere from 9am-11am and returning 4-8pm, worse on sundays. so either i go early and come back early or i don't go at all. :(

    i did take a week vacation down in les deux alpes the other week:

    That sounds like the I-70 dash thru the Eisenhauer Tunnel back to Denver. If you're not on the road by 1PM on Sunday, you'd better just relax at a restaurant until 8PM.

    Nice piccys of the Alps. I always marvel at how barren the landscape is. I like riding singletrack thru the trees.
