Eh hem. Great? I think not! What about the snowboarding season? Everything was melting in the mountains the end of this week. It was quite tragic, as we got some good snow the days before. Nice powder that then just turned into slush a few days later.
Though, I'll give you a few weeks of warm weather as I have a few cracked ribs now, and should probably not be doing any snow sports for a bit.

What happened, someone?? I hope you can at least function normally outside of sports.

I´m patting myself on the back for taking out my bike for the first time this year and came back without a single emergency landing. Had a nice lunch outdoors in between rides, too.

Oh, it is all due to snowboarding, of course. I had a bit of a bad landing midway through my snow vacation last week. So I had to spend the remainder skiing very carefully, as the snowboard was just too painful. I think I still function 'normally', besides sports, coughing, sneezing or laughing.

Congratulations on your biking success.

I'm glad you can move around even if it sounds painful to me. It triggers memories of ´the mother of a son´ with cracked ribs, vertebrae, nose, teeth, etc. and still not giving up sports... (:

Hope your rip improves real fast and afterall, it is not even mid-February, so there is still the potential for some good snowboarding-snow!
