jstone Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 it happens, I blew a hook and went for a ride today. Better to get it out of the way early in the season. Quote
Dru Posted February 13, 2006 Author Posted February 13, 2006 At least there's -15C on the way so we can get in a last shot of ice. Quote

archenemy Posted February 28, 2006 Posted February 28, 2006 I love this time of year. I just think back to how long it took to get in shape or climb a certain grade the first time around and then compare it to how fast I can get back to that level this time around. Oh, and I wear a cape. Quote
