Seriously TJ? This weekend will be my 5th in a row, means I will have caught up all the weekends I missed after fracturing my vertebrae. If not for financial reasons perhaps a nice cup of cement is in order?

I think it’s just sorting the men from the boy’s (or girls in Lanox’s case)

I’m out after this weekend probably till till the 13th of September.  Next weekend I’m moving into my new place which is something I hate but obviously a necessity then the following weekend I might have to go to a bday.  That next week though I’m looking at 4 days straight from the 13th to the 16th, is that the shred week?

Well to tell you the truth i had few chances to go but there was no1 to go with and my mates are not so much in to snow.
To top it all off i really wanted to go last few weeks but i seem to have something on every week.

ah what can you do.

Would definitely recommend heading down by yourself. I love riding with the group but some of my best times have just been cruising the mountain and trying new things all by myself. That way you’re not slowed down by/or slowing down anyone else and you can set your own schedule i.e I pretty much don’t stop all day.

That is very true Dave.

It’s the drive that would kill me the most.

THIS. All of it.

Because I’ve been sick this year, and majorly unfit regardless, i have just been riding by myself or with the kid - so I’m not holding anybody up. I’m good as long as I’ve got my tunes to keep me company.

I have done it by myself almost every trip.

occasionally I have had Dylan in the car to Canberra. (no use there as he is usually asleep before east jindy!)

Having TJ on Sunday was the first time i have ever shared the driving this season. 

And I do an 8 - 5.30 day (minimum) both days and don’t get home till 1am. You don’t have to make it that hard on yourself!

The drive is bad but the fun factor outweighs it IMO.  Only one time in the past 4 trips have I shared the driving, looking forward to being able to do that this weekend.  When I lived in Melbs and was doing day trips to Buller I was by myself 90% of the time when I rode, I’m still very much used to it.  I do like riding with others who are better than or close in riding level as I tend to push myself a bit which I find is way better for progression than anything else.
