Bloated Skiing: August 10-12, Whistler Bike Park

Thanks to my neighbor Scott Sumner for organizing his annual guys trip to Whistler. We arrived Sunday morning and were on the lifts by 11:00. Enjoyed not having to pedal uphill, but it's pretty amazing how tiring downhill mountain biking can be. We did 13,000 feet of descending our first day covering about 24 miles incl. chair lift rides. Scott, Steve and I were all pretty much the same speed, so it was fun chasing each other around all day. Glad no injuries. Would be very easy to have a bad wipe-out. Did another full day on Monday, then Tuesday we paid for the 3 ride ticket, 35 bucks, and rode from 9:30 till noon.
