~*...spring riding...*~

jonas and frederic picked me up this morning and we headed to whitewater for some spring riding. the sun was shining, the weather was warm, and there were people riding in t-shirts. i opted for the turtle neck sans jacket...


its going to take a while for all the snow on this mountain to melt, even with these warmer temperatures.

and of course there is always fresh tracks available to you if you're willing to walk to it. the sun did however cook the snow, so the silver king side was very sticky spring snow.



the summit side had some pretty good snow, and some lightning fast groomed runs. i don't think i've gone that fast in my entire life. there is no rush like speed.

spring riding roolz! warm weather, fast runs, and t-shirts. women riding in bikinis would have been nice though ;)

after an awesome day of riding, we stopped at oso for a coffee. it was jonas and frederic's first time at oso, despite being here for three months. it is the place to be here in nelson, and the continous warm weather is just around the corner.

joa, the beautiful woman that i met on friday night, had invited me over for dinner at her place. i love how everything in nelson is a 20minute walk..even out of town is only a 30minute walk ;)

spring riding, spring fever. gotta love it. this town roolz!
