I'm ok as long as I don't over do it and am wearing my knee support.

I suffer with ankylosing spondilitis...google that old man!

I've also skied the Hahnenkamm in Kitzbuhel.
Unfortunately it was about a month and a half later than the race and the size of the moguls was scary.
I was bricking it as I looked down and what awaited me and it was only that another group was going down that I followed.
We stayed together most of the way down which was good as otherwise I'd have done it on my own (probably not a wise choice!).

Felt elated once I'd reached the bottom in once piece.
I'll always remember stopping by the TV gantry near the top and seeing the ridiculous sight in front of me.

I hope to go to America or Canada one year but it is a lot more expensive.
Also the lift passes are so much dearer than in Europe and they're bad enough!

Maybe I'll give myself a treat in a year or so.

Just for you Snowbandit, heres what to expect in January:














When I first looked at these pictures, I wondered how I had got down there, but once you are there adrenalin kicks in and you just get on with it. I love doing some of this kind of stuff now and then.
