Master Skier Training March 13-Helena

Posted on March 10th, 2011

Depending on the status of the trailhead, we will have a session on Sunday, allowing enough time to hopefully get the trail up and skiing.  We will meet at 10am, for skate technique work and then a easy ski afterwards.  Hope to see ya there.  Oh by the way...I ran across this biking video of a rider from Ireland/Scotland.  Most amazing bike video of riding I have ever seen.  Check it out if you want to be amazed!   YouTube - Danny MacAskill - "Way Back Home"   Wow!!  makes you want to go for a ride.
