Cheers Pabs, had not seen the whole set.... It is an awesome resort, not a huge area or a great amount of vertical, but it is steep.

This is the best road in the world, and it is the main highway between Santiago in Chile and Mendoza in Argentina. when riding at lunchtime it is logjammed with trucks.

Following on from an earlier post...

La Garganta in Portillo.

Fun once you are on.....



Frightening at the top....



Safe to say, with a fractured skull and colarbone, I did a fair bit of slip-sliding down this one :)

and to illustrate what I was not doing on it...



:shock:
very very very jealous :(
Cheers mate :)

I am gonna be bold here, but if Eljay's ritual works and I have powder coming out my ears in 19 days I will buy her a shiny new coffee table as thanks. Naturally it will have a much smaller radius so she can dance round it more efficiently. :)
Normally I would be amongst the first to calm your fears, but I am heading to Saalbach in Austria in 19 sleeps and I am seriously worried.

I seem to have missed these words of wisdom Tony :shock:

I can feel a challenge coming on. How about we do a weekend somewhere on the cheap. I'll use your skis and you use my board and well see what happens????

To really fit in you need to borrow some clothes from Micheal Jordan and grow a bad adolesent beard.

I will reciprocate by being rude in lift queues and twatting folk in the head as I hoist my, I mean your, skis over my shoulder in a crowded area.

Deal??
:twisted:

Skifahren.


Anyone else know it? Its highly irritating.


I know it and although it's no classic it's not that bad.

The Hintertux has a couple of classics. Lookup Helmet aus Mallorca on YouTube :o
Waiting to go.

Legend!!!!!!

5:1 ratio is excellent reasoning my friend, drink weizen and you could probably half the food cost :)
