It's been a bit of a roller coaster for sure. Glad I don't own a ski hill.
This was the first year that I thought we wouldn't be riding before New Years. Beat it by a day! We've been forced to ride our land based spots
which we haven't really ridden in almost 3 years. When conditions came into play the riding has been quite good (see pics). Had a 6 day stretch of
riding both for fun and lessons and it definitely brought our collective moods up. This season has been the polar opposite of last year and I'm happy
we had such a killer season last year to take the edge off the beating we're getting this season. :D
This last weekend we rode Saturday then watched 2 inches of rain come down Sunday. This has taken the land based stuff out of play for a bit but
smoothed out the ice so that's good. The ice situation is coming around with 7"+ up north and 5-6" just down the street. The studded tire bike
riding is really great right now! POWERSLIDES AND DRIFTING FOR DAYS!!!! Thinking of hosting a skidding contest. My longest is about 400'. :D
We've had more demand for guided fat biking than kiting at the moment. I have a backlog of lessons waiting in the wings, a pile of gift certificates
that want to be redeemed and when the season finally gets dialed, which may be pretty soon, things are going to be hectic. :evil:
