Thwarted

Today I thought I would go up Remarkables for a snow shoe to check out the ice lines. The Ski field website said closed but in the last couple of hours the snowline had shrunk back so I thought it would be fine. I was so Confident that even when I got to the road closed barrier I let myself through...The grader had been through I hadn't needed chains yet. Soon however I met the grader and beyond that the snow was too thick for me, about a foot deep Maybe a truck would get up but if you got stuck I wouldn't expect help getting out with all the warnings!( Pack shovel next time)

Turned back, I took a few tourist shots,  met a few girlfriends for coffee, and then rode my bike up Skyline where I bumped into a guy Tim I met at 7 mile last week and did a couple of runs with him and his mate Pete (Turd Sandwich is super slippery!)

First snow of the year

It snowed for 3 days solid and we took our split boards up Coronet peak for the first ski tour of the season. Up was easy, but my butt isn't quite up to It yet on the downhill, so on the way home we went to the Spa to recover..Nice

There were a few gear problems and the Handle bars were loose but now the flash blue gear bike is all go again! I cooked the Dinner while Bailey and Aaron did manly stuff in the Garage
