    Coronavirus and Skiing

    I'll be the first to criticize ORDA for problems they create themselves, but I won't fault them for this. They had plenty of issues this season, but this was not one of them. In mid-February, there was plenty of snow and things were looking very good. It's not their goal to be Killington, and...

    Moderna #2 yesterday afternoon for me too ... So far ... So good ... No problems ... Arm isn't anywhere near as sore as it was after #1.

    What is your skiing history?

    Just be respectful about it and accept that everyone is entitled to their own beliefs and opinions. Maybe try to put yourself in their shoes and see it from their point of view.

    What is your skiing history?

    Ultimately, I think a lot of people are like this ... maybe even more so for those of us who are a little older ... we were raised to keep our problems to ourselves ... "God helps those who help themselves" ... that sort of thing. For me, the big thing is to try not to be too judgmental of...

    What is your skiing history?

    This thread takes "New Member Intro" to the next level ... My story is VERY similar to this ... I am the youngest of three and no one in my family ever skied until I started night skiing with my middle school ski club when I was in 8th grade. The only lesson I've ever taken was the first time...

    Coronavirus and Skiing

    It's worth noting that Vermont has the 2nd lowest per capita rate of COVID cases in the country, behind only Hawaii.

    Palisades MTB Plug

    Thanks for the info! This is what I did, and yes ... it definitely sucked going up!!! I knew I was really out of shape ... now I know how REALLY bad it is!! Oh well ... something to work on. That was definitely not a difficult trail, though I go pretty slow down hill ... I have neither the...

    Palisades MTB Plug

    Too bad about that ... Maybe another time? As I mentioned, I'm relatively new to it, but I'm looking to do a lot more this year. I'm thinking I may just do the same thing Low Angle Life mentioned above ... just ride the Red Trail out and back and see how it goes. From what I can see on the...

    Palisades MTB Plug

    I was thinking about going over to Blauvelt this afternoon/evening to take a ride. Does anyone know if the trail conditions there are OK for riding or is it too wet right now? Also, I've never ridden there, so any suggestions for a relative newbie to MTB would be appreciated.

    ORDA Board Meetings

    I certainly wouldn't disagree with that!

    ORDA Board Meetings

    My final point on this topic (maybe) ... Believe it or not, I'm not an ORDA basher ... I believe in ORDA's mission and purpose, and by and large, I do think they do a pretty good job. That said, just as if I was a stockholder in a corporation, as a New York State resident and taxpayer, since my...

    I definitely hope that continues to be the case for him.

    ORDA Board Meetings

    While this may be true in many cases, my perception is that there's more to it than that. I think there are a lot of good people who work government jobs, but after a while, they begin to recognize that there's no real incentive to excel at what they do. For a lot of government workers, their...

    The New Normal

    This ... As I understand it, there's a federally funded program that was created to set aside funds to deal with potential claims made due to these vaccines.

    The New Normal

    From my own perspective, a friend of mine has worked in Pfizer's clinical vaccine trials program for over 20 years. I had seen her last June and she was very excited about what they were seeing in the clinical trials they were running. For me, and this is strictly a personal decision, I trust...
