Down the Gadzooks Trail.Another great day of skiing and ibrofen at the end of the day today! Every time I go skiing, I get this big headache and sore legs at the end of the day, but it's worth it. I wanted to have a chance to go to Snowbird skiing, not bike racing. When I went there, I kept thinking about the most gruelsome, hardest, big time suffering best race I ever did. The Snowbird Widowmaker Hillclimb in the summer of 2000. Actually, I have been thinking about this race every day since September 2000. It was just the steepest granny gearing hill climb ever from the base to the top of the tram. I finished second in my age group(19-29) and I finished 5 minutes behind the pro. I did it in one hour and 3 minutes and it was the best I ever did in a race. I remember going maxinum heart rate all the way up and didn't need to train all week for the Deer Valley race the week after that and got 1st on that one(it was easy). After the snowbird race, I lost interest in all the other races but that's not why I stopped racing, I stopped racing because of injuries on both of my knees because I didn't lift weights for my legs with my bike training when I got home from my mission so I just tore them up from lifting up things. Then I got sick, lost a lot of weight, then gained too much weight in the last two years, so I am not race compatible anymore. But I ride for fun now, and ski! Skiing at Snowbird was great! I loved it, except for the crowds here. The service was great though. I love Snowbird! Good biking and skiing memories here.
Down the double black diamond trail called Dalton's Draw, I loved this one!
And a shitload of people! UUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHH!
