Wednesday Night Die Hards Brave Weather Propaganda
Thursday, 31 January 2008

ImageAnother Wednesday night and another bout of crazy weather. Luckily the strongest winds had abated by the evening and things were looking up! The groomer was out making the icy hardpan into perfect corduroy. Again the PB proved it is still worth every penny. The skating on the Yellow trail was as good as it’s ever been. The trails were fast and you could still get an edge. Unfortunately, due to global warming propaganda most people didn’t make it out. There were only two die hard skier that braved the “elements”. Luckily one was authorized to groom the trails. However, I can’t gloat too much, about halfway into the ski the power went out on Northshore road and the trails went dark. Shaken but not stirred, the two resourceful skiers went to headlamp backup and salvaged the workout. It would have been a good night for a TT, record times would have been set!! Let’s hope next week brings some reasonable weather so that people won’t be frightened. See you on the trails! Read more for a few pics of the trails (before the lights went out).

Sunday, 20 January 2008

 Image

The snow was fast, the skiers were working hard. The times were record breaking! Almost everyone set a PB for our usual TT course. We skiied 1 lap then set up for the mystical reverse pursuit. Dave W won the sandbagger award (going purposely slower on lap 1), while Stoppa won the "blown tire" award, narrowly from Aaron, for the most amount of time dropped on Lap 2. The course record has be re-set to 7:06, down from 7:12 set under slightly slower conditions in 2005. Nice work everyone!! Click read more for the times...
