So I’m back in Whistler, Canada now where the rain has began falling and the snowboarding starts again next month. While I was in NZ this year, my girlfriend got into mountain biking. During summer here they open up several of the ski lifts for downhill mountain biking. You you take the lift up with your bike and just ride down through a pretty rad selection of trails. We spent a couple of days in the bike park last week before it closes for the winter season. Not quite as good as snowboarding but it’s still a pretty rad sport. Definitely worthy of a few MD’s.

There’s been a bit of snow starting to fall on the upper slopes so everyone around here is definitely buzzing for the season to start. I’ve also been checking out the Ruapehu webcams and it sill looks on so if you’re hanging around the north island, make sure you get amongst some of that deep base they’re rocking.
