That would have been no problem for Grant Hadwin...he's probably still alive.

He grew up in southern Vancouver Island, which isn't actually very mountainous compared to the mainland of British Columbia.

Here's something that you won't find in any tourist brochures.

Grab a sandwich from here: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Red+Barn+Country+Market+Ltd,+West+Saanich+Road,+Victoria,+BC,+Canada&hl=en&ll=48.531896,-123.440022&spn=0.025264,0.041285&sll=48.567435,-123.487058&sspn=0.02536,0.041285&oq=red+barn&t=h&hq=Red+Barn+Country+Market+Ltd,+West+Saanich+Road,+Victoria,+BC,+Canada&radius=15000&z=15

Then drive up to this spot: http://maps.google.com/?ll=48.567549,-123.487058&spn=0.025246,0.041285&hnear=Victoria,+Capital+Regional+District,+British+Columbia,+Canada&t=h&z=15&layer=c&cbll=48.567442,-123.487057&panoid=feO11OGlzpSogQrITmt4lA&cbp=12,307.7,,0,17.49

You can't tell from street view, but that vacant lot has an awesome view of the Sannich Inlet.

Reducing personal consumption is a nice idea, but it's not very effective. This Derrick Jensen article explains why personal change does not equal political change: http://www.orionmagazine.org/index.php/articles/article/4801/

That was my mistake. K2 does not own Armada. I fixed the graphic.

I attended this. It was really powerful in person, especially when he got emotional on stage.

I ski in $2 dress socks. Those are the real bargain and they work better.

If you're finding snowblades easier, you're doing it wrong.

How do you sprain an ankle in a ski boot? It seems like it wouldn't be possible.

technotard · 5 months

Wow, I do this too!!

hmmm...thanks sounds like a lot of work. I ride everyday and I live on the coast where it rains almost every second day this time of year.

I don't actually turn the shower on. I brush it down, and use a water bottle to moderately squirt water onto some areas. The shower is just the best place in my apartment building to do it.

My bike gets soaked in the weather these days, so a bit of extra water won't hurt it. It's more important to get all the dirt and pine needles off of it.

I'll have to try to be up before noon for the first time in a while.
