    We loved Boston Legal!!! But it's been many years so it might be time to rewatch. Thanks for the idea! My favorite rewatch is Breaking Bad. I just rewatched some of season 2 while flying to and from New Mexico. I've rewatched the entire series more times than I'm willing to confess 🤣

    Thanks for the recommendation. Added The are murderers to my watch list. We just finished the second season of The Diplomat. Really good and ended with a heck of a cliffhanger.

    Glad KC got trounced. Didn't watch a second of the game nor even follow it. We watched the Netflix OJ series instead.

    Today's Ride

    Great 6.5mi ride with the guys today. About 4" of fresh snow overnight left the woods magically beautiful. Lake Ontario looking cold and icy. I really need to get some wider tires and maybe even studded. Another bike tech friend is thinking Shwalbe radials instead of studded might be better...

    Saturday February 8- day 1 at Bristol for me this season. We arrived around 815 and knew we had to get on the mountain quickly as 5 school buses and a tour bus were arriving. Was on the chair shortly after 830am. Headed straight over to Galaxy and Northstar. Polaris-Northstar top to bottom was...

    Today's Ride

    I run pretty hot when I'm moving so generally I go the with old adage, "be bold, start cold." For legs I wear a fleece compression layer and/or merino layer, then on top of those I wear Eddie Bauer Guide Pro pants. If it's really cold like now I'll wear some soft shell pants that I might wear...

    Going Under the Knife

    My friend's wife had the surgery in early November and she expects to ski this month. They explored other treatment options putting it off for a few years, but she was frequently in a lot of pain and taking a lot of pain meds so wanted it done. Surgery went great. Installed plates and screws...

    For sure! When I was at Steamboat last year you had to be observant and know it was owned by Alterra/Ikon--- everything had an independent look and feel. Also as you know ~3/4 of Ikon Pass mountains are done via partnership of some type, not ownership so they are really independent. Very...

    Wow that's scary! I'm sure we've all been on some chairs that are very high at some points where a fall like that would have been death. Hope the person is okay!

    Winter Weather 2024/25

    Yup hoping so. But here in ROC we have near 40 today with rain showers, followed by high teens overnight. Rain and 43 again on Monday. Followed by colder for Tues & Weds. Then rain showers and near 40 again on Thurs. But holding out hope-- cold has been more persistent this winter so maybe...

    Bristol Mountain, NY: 1.30.25

    Nice photo's! Not sure if you're looking for other places to visit after skiing Bristol but Brew and Brats at Arbor Hill is pretty good also.

    Winter Weather 2024/25

    The early February pattern is looking a bit reminiscent of what we've experienced the previous recent winters. Warm up with rain followed by cold and dry. Hopefully not, but that's what the 10 day forecast looks like right now.

    Ugh rain. I hadn't noticed. If it rains much tomorrow it might be a hard pass for me then. I'm gonna make the most of my 6 passes :)

    Great point about running the Rocket Triple in the evenings instead of the Galaxy quad--- same staffing. I'll write something up and send it over to Dan. Thanks for the discussion. Keep your high quality updates coming! I love to read them especially this Friday since I may go Saturday to use...

    I must sound like a grump 🤣 Anyway I agree Johnny that while not running the Galaxy chair technically only eliminates 1 run, my beef is it takes out the best top to bottom intermediate/advanced run on the mountain. Also of significance the Galaxy HS quad allows you to not only access...

    I hear you but it's just part of a long beef I have w/Bristol management taking things away, which devalued our season passes which in turn made me and friends spend less $$$--- like dropping season passes and lockers around 8 years ago. Things like shortening operating hours and closing the...
