missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!
Re: The only thing better then biking.
I have only ever been skiing on real snow once. Many years ago on a school trip to the north Italy, and I loved it. My legs or pocket wouldn't cope with it these days.

And that was on a dry slope.
I prefer the ones with Gluhwein.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
Re: The only thing better then biking.
skiing beats any other holiday
only thing I'm sorry about is that i should have been at it years ago

Been skiing twice and I have to say I can't see why you'd want to do it. Now mountain biking, that's a different kettle of kippers

Re: The only thing better then biking.
Was brought up on the slopes. At the age of 7 I was in a school in Switzerland & it was compulsory to be on the slopes from 9-12 everyday, lessons were done in the afternoons. That was a great time in my life miss it dearly
