Belleayre, NY: Jan 7-8 2023 E-Bike Ski Trip

[Ripitz]

Wow.
King of the Iron Butts dragging a trailer at night with skiing as the meat of your bike tour sandwich!!
Which Stocklis?
Thanks for the excellent write-up and photos.

Thanks X. So funny. The Stocklis I brought are the Edge 88s. They are their lightweight touring ski and are absolutely incredible. I’ve been using them as my go to for inbounds skiing. I have them mounted with Fritschi Tectons paired with Salomon S/Lab boots to keep things light.

Life is short. Dream big. Live bigger.

This was one of those days you never forget.

I asked Rip about his motivation for these adventures.

He said "hey I'm 50, I got a lot of shit I gotta get done in the next 20 years."

My man, it was an honor to play a small part in your bad-assery.

Thanks Benny. Great comment. I’m still laughing. Also love the crazy Italian ripping the slopes on his bike.

Subscribe to his YouTube channel. Very entertaining stuff. He is nuts. His whole family rips and rocks. Awesome ski, bike, and hike videos in the Dolomites.

Tirolese folks are nuts, nice people, like to have fun and live in a spectacularly beautiful place.
Whenever the traveling shitshow ends I’m there.
As a wise man said, "Life is short. Dream big. Live bigger."

The shit show is over, haven't you heard? There's no green pass anymore, everything is running. Problem on my side is that my IRA is down by 25% in 22, so I have to stop acting like I'm rich. Maybe next year.
iKon covers a week in Dolomitie Superski, too.

If interested, here's how the Dolomites look at the moment.

Great adventure story! This should be shortlisted for TR of the year. On second thought, just make it TR of the year right now.

I was interested! Thank you!!

And Benny, I’m sure you already made 8% (or so) of that back. You got nothing to worry about (except for the expensive hobbies).

Wow!! Great TR! You are a god. Can someone help me make the pictures work?

That's the problem. Skiing is expensive.
