OK, back to stoke.

STOKED, went to Hotham for the weekend. Our neighbours came up for a look see, headed out the other side of the resort and hiked a little hill and taught them to snowboard….... STOKED to see someone else feel the STOKE. I think I have created a new snowboarder shaka

Then more STOKE, yesterday spent the morning blasting around the place with my three beautiful girls (and Wildman until he ditched us, who shall now be know as CPH )

In the arvo, we got Mini Shred out on her board which has been sitting idle for far to long. Last time she was out, falling leaf was the favoured mode, yesterday saw linked turns, good speed and starting to ollie off little lumps and bumps. STOKED

Tambo starting to ride switch and trying little ollies STOKED

There was about 30 peeps on the Big D yesterday arvo, light breeze, sunny, about 12 degrees…...... STOKE does not get much better for this old bloke.

Thats awesome TJ, and Eastern Creek is an awesome track for it. I went for a hot lap with the Holden Racing Team there in 2004 and LOVED IT. That first corner… WOW

Was only the short track cause they had 2 different events on. So many crazy corners where I felt like I was going to die lol.

Pfft Hot Laps - overrated.
Wait till you drive Eastern Creek!

Any race track in a rear engined Porsche with someone else driving would be scary I reckon.

SUPER STOKE SCARY!

TJ, that’s sick! Super jealous! thumbsup

I’m stoked today. It’s 6:30am and I’m about to leave to pick up Michelle from the airport. She’s been gone for just over three weeks and I miss her like crazy.  heart
