Observation

On my bike I can climb fairly steep grade roads at about 7.5 mph and it feels really, really slow.

On skis, if I can convince myself to relax and let go a bit, I can get going about 7.5 mph and it feels screaming (because that's what I'm doing) fast!

Weird.

Tuesday. Nothing is stopping me this time. I will be ill and the only cure is to come skiing with you. Kara is also taking the day off and will likely bring alcohol. :)

Sounds like we will likely be carrying Kara off the mountain after she crashes into a tree. :0

That sounds like fun. Only I am a goofus on skis. I like it when I wear my Ski Utah jacket and people look at me like I should be something special and then I nearly fall over. It's great.
