First race is in the bag

Now that the first race jitters are out of the way it’s time to get the ball rolling! I had an amazing time in Aspen. It was my first World Cup GS race, ( although I skied slower than I wanted to) it really helped to kick out of the start gate and get the season [...]

A little place called Aspen…

In the great words of Jim Carey in the movie Dumb and Dumber,   ”A little place called Assspen…where the beer flows like wine and the women flock like the salmon of Capistrona.” I am going to be flocking to Aspen this Thanksgiving weekend along with all the best skiers in the world. Race season is here. [...]
