Default Yep- had a race at Copper Sat, took the family with me.

I bet you were headed to Vail for the GS. Pretty chilly in the morning, but a good day overall. How did you do in the GS?

Default A pair of top 10 elite results- very competitive race and challenging courses.

I followed you down from the tunnel and took a rock hit in the windshield on the H2 (who cares?) that would have cleared the S8. I can't wait for the next year to fly by so I can get back into my D2 regularly.

BTW, I noticed you had 2pr of skis on a roof rack- why not put them in the trunk/ski sack?

Also, check your tail lights- the right side appeared to be out or faint.

Good turnout and racing at Copper's Teamski?
Alex, Lief and Jennifer were at Vail both days.

Default Great job! Sorry about the rock- not intentional ;-)

With my wife and 2 kids along, I had 3 pair of skis in the ski sack plus two on the roof- can't fit 5 pair in the sack. The Teamski turn out was not that great- John Crone was the fastest on the hill, and I was around 5th or 6th. John frequently beats Leif and Alex, but the level of competition in Teamski has dropped off, likely because the program is not as well run as previous years. The tail lamp is a wiring problem I still need to track down- the bulb is good. Thanks for the heads up, though. Any more Masters GS races this year?

No, Vail was the GS championships. Only the SL champ's left at Loveland on 2/24-25.
