Montrealers don't know shit! The Eastern Townships here, just north of the VT border, are a true paradise for backyard XCD skiers. You just have to explore a bit. The woods are still not skiable with the new snow, which probably gonna melt with the next few warmer days. Those kickers are really cool...

Great beer! But still way too weak for me. I don't drink anything below 35%...

You guys can get all the Unibroue stuff down there?

Did the exact same experimentation several years ago. And I came to the very same conclusion. Threw them away and bought a pair of five fingers...

I know... I'll have to change someday... There's not a single part of my body that doesn't ache constantly... I'm vegan for ethical reasons only. I couldn't care less about health.

Or hot wax them, then rub the scale with a towel or a fine brush to remove the wax stuck between the scales. Finish the job with soft Swix Fibertex pads. http://images.modernbike.com/256/main...

Want! I wonder if the 3pins were once made this way... And economic reasons turned them into just plain holes... Maybe it could be just like a smiley plate, but a lot thicker...? Maybe ice would build more easily into those metal holes? I'll send you all my leathers if you can do it... And please ad...

Yeah Paul!

Yep, Dolphin... That's my summer name... : ) The lonely bear with his lonely TeleSteph... We stayed in the lower part of the mountain today to avoid that dust-over-concrete stuff. Sorry, I knew she had the camera... I couldn't help striking a KTB pose... : ) DSC_66402.jpg DSC_66892.jpg DSC_66662.jpg
