Jimmer,

Today is the last day above 90, north of Saratoga - I swear.

Did you buy like a skin tight suit?

We are doing some mouseproofing on our camp (mice are insane this year) and upgrading our hot water heater. Wood is in...just some nice fall hiking and then time to do some skiing.

One thing I learned last season - no whining until the SEASON is OVER! It was one of the great season's with basically nothing before Valentine's Day.

Keep the stoke.

What say the rest of you?

I say, I'M MELTING DOWN HERE!!! Enough of this crap already, give me some Winter!

And I say, Jimmer, what are you doing sending your business over to RW when you've got Reliable Racing/Inside Edge right up the street? Think Global, act Local!

Northeast of Albany, and it can't come soon enough as far as I'm concerned. Storms still haven't fired-up here, and the heat index is 108 at 7:43 pm.

Gotta respect that answer, but don't forget Johnny's big sale is only a week away. Should be worth a look!

I'm not sure if that's going to cut it. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad for a start, but could I suggest a little time on the stairmaster just in case? I'd hate to see you cramping up, and all, after that opening day abuse!

the cycling seems to work fine.... probably because before I head north to ski I switch over to the mountain bike for a couple of months and that is kind of similar to the StairMaster on the technical trails anyway.

being from FL I only get to ski about 15 days a year ..... two 3 day stints at GORE and total of 9 skiing days out west ......therefore the days skiing are FULL days

For example at gore I am usually on one of the first Gondolas up and then ski till near 4 with only about 20-25 minutes off for lunch---- when I am out west it is not uncommon to log 30,000 + feet of vert in a day.

and other than a but of an achy arch for about 2 runs in the AM .....no aches or pains ... and I am 49 (at least for another couple weeks Shocked

MB, I'm sorry that you missed it, but, just so we're straight, my previous post was a bit of sarcastic humor.
