ski-ing.

tomorrow, looks like a Denton trip.

I'm gonna just ski.  taking the full
quiver.  Bro's w/ skins to misery 
stick nnn-bc waxless.  I'm gonna
just ski, and get the shit out of my
head.  go where I want, how I want.

I'm not gonna self critque the turn,
I'm gonna turn when I need to, where
I need to and flow that shit down the
side of the hill.  I'm gonna tippy toe
some turns, drop my hands and use 
the leverage of the big plastic and rely 
on athleticism over form to go have a 
rippin' good time.  fuckin' clinics, 
gettin' in my head. do wanna strive, get 
off this plateau, but need to cut loose.
and being anonymous at Denton chasing
leftovers and singletrack access freshies
will let me do that. or hit WG and crush
the bases...hmmm, fresh rock grind????

then do it again locally on sunday.
and then spin some pedals in the slightly
milder weather that's forecast, let the
recent ski binge soak into the tired 
legs.....and scratch that other itch, 
it's been awhile.

sswc'09 is in the mail, 
last day of reg,
thankful that 
I 'know people'
tight, yo.

to the basement!

wax on. wax off.
too bad this chick
isn't a Rountop local.

Training.

I'm almost glad I'm getting too old for this shit.
I'm almost glad I'm not thinking abut 'racing.'
not hardly paying attention, looking in other
directions to satisfy the wanderlust.

do have ideas to hit some events....vote for me!
and there are standbys of course, Meeshow & SMT styley,
but words like series, standings and points
won't be in my thoughts.

time to play with the Google Earth.

shwupped

yeah, Whitegrss is back in session.
Lee is still the toughest man I know,
just walk it off. I'm glad I have friends
willing to follow me around on a pair
of skis. Seeing new sights, sharing
new routes alway makes it worth it.
Stats: -19F rolling thru Davis. Hit the
Uptrack 9:20ish,explored some blue
ribbon Wildeness. Saw some stoner
hippy's rehab snowoshoe track from
Friday, then explored over in the
birches before a couple laps on the
pipeline proper. Boogied back via
Uppper Springers for a fun lap down
the main slope. Six hour tour, took
a break with a Hop Devil and a couple
sips of hi-test spring water....then back
out for a hot lap on the mainslope,
busting ot the straight shot skintrack
for a really really really fun last run.

must sleep
