Happy New Year
acjNot much biking going on this last month. The snow finally arrived a couple of weeks ago, which is good for ski business. I think Mt Bachelor got another 4 ft in the last 3 days or so. The nordic skiing has been decent, but not great yet. I've been sticking to the classic skis so far. We've had so much snow that I figure it is going to be pretty soft each day I go. That, and the fact that I'm not in any kind of ski shape right now. I'll hopefully start skating this week and doing intervals and all that shit. At least that's the plan.
I got to go over to Eugene for Xmas. Spent the weekend with my girlfriend and her family. We spent one day cruising around town and stopping in at a couple of bike shops and guitar shops. The Guitar center and McKenzie River Music were both really cool - lots of super cool guitars to drool over. I'm really thinking about starting to collect guitars....there are so many awesome guitars! BTW, I got myself a new Breedlove Altas Stage a couple of months ago, and I am LOVING it! I haven't played my guitar this consistently in my life. I'm not good, but I am getting better.
For Xmas, my wonderful girlfriend gave me a custom leather 'WebCyclery' guitar strap - which is super cool. I get made fun of sometimes because I am ALWAYS wearing WebCyclery stuff - shirts, hats, socks, etc. It is truly one of the best gifts I've ever gotten. Thanks Sweetie!
Hopefully I'm going skiing a couple of times tomorrow. Once before work, and then again for New Year's Eve. We'll be closing early on Wednesday - 1PM, so if you call or try to come in after that, we won't be here.
Happy New Year everybody!
