Tighe, you're awfully lippy for a guy who's site server switch is... a... mere... few... keystrokes... away...




Nice work Mike! I've been waiting for someone to pass my speed... 60+ this season is inevitable, so we both still have some work to do!


-Coach

That's impressive! The footstraps help, I'm sure - but it must make it a biatch to jibe/tack and step around those things.

-Coach

Nothing yet on Twin Cities lakes, I imagine.. The storm just hasn't produced yet.

I prefer the term "wussy." It makes me sound only slightly less weak.

Hah - sorry Tighe, just firing back atcha'. Would love nothing more than to make it up tomorrow, so we'll see what the roads are like...


-Coach

Tighe, it would be nice to spend as much time as possible with my almost 2-year-old child, especially since he's heading to Japan for a month without me... (You insensitive clod... :-P hah!) BTW - looking out my window in WBL right now and the wind is RIPPING. Regardless of where I end up tomorrow, ...

Damn, Mike - thanks for reminding me. I forgot to bring my stuff and go for some speed runs this afternoon! Doh! I'm expecting my current standing to be busted sometime soon. The last few years, speeds in the 60's have been no problem. -Coach p.s. Ramsey tomorrow, baby... Unless I'm feeling super-cr...

Thanks! Ask for Kathy Burgess!

-Coach

Is there anyone that can stop by The House this afternoon to pick some stuff up for Mike Fox and the Crossing?

With tomorrow's weather, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to make it - so I want to make sure the stuff gets there. Give me a call if you can help out: 651-428.7969.

-Coach

I never thought I'd be worried about this, but I'm wondering about getting to the Crossing tomorrow... I can't leave until early tomorrow morning, but I have a feeling the drive is going to be either terribly frightening or painfully slow. Extra-bummer points: I have to drive back tomorrow night for...

You do look like you are about to ditch the kite only to be shot out of a canon...

I put some old stuff up... Kitefreeze, Vojta, Aaron Sales, AP, Rothman, Tighe's monster helmet... Some of the old favorites.

Mike Fox and I will probably take my plane up Weds afternoon and scope out the crossing conditions on Mille Lacs. I'll post a report when we're back. Hopefully it won't matter... I'll be cleaning my garage this weekend, too...

Cool vid. It seems fairly ironic to see a land boarder jumping patches of water.


-Coach

I do my own fitting now, so not sure who in town might be good. Anyone know a decent boot-fitter?

-Coach

Hotronics are great, but the key to warm feet is well-fitting boots. Years of skiing taught me that - Hotronics in badly-fitting boots did little to help. Loose boots are no good, tight and fitted are the key. Although, it's hard to find a decent boot fitter around here. When I worked in a shop we'd...

Sub-zero? No way. Count me in... Indoors, that is.

-Coach

I've never had an incident with a snowmobiler, so I just don't get it... Why the hell would they ever ride within 90 feet of a person walking around on the snow, anyway? Geez...

-Coach

How weird is it when a husband and wife are communicating via Lakawa?

I'm freaked out...


-Coach

Don't scare the guy, Steve. Let nature takes it's course...

muahahahahahahaha...
