Yippeee!

skiing


The new BR Lights site is up! After much keytapping and headscratching the monster has finally taken form.

Please DO check out the site and the awesome lights it promotes. (http://brlights.com/)

Please DO NOT look to closely at the Frankencode ;) (I'm learning)

Please DO feel free to blog me on any bugs you find, suggestions you have etc. Trust me I need all the input I can get!

.....and now for some purty pictures from Canada!



This was the only one we got while actually skiing. The boys totalled up that we did 120K vertical during the 5 days. Not much time for snapshots when you're trying to keep up. ;)




I love Canada. It's gorgeous! I will hopefully get a gallery of shots up soon...



Ok, this is not Canada, it's Seattle. I thought it was awefully pretty though.

Ok, must stop procrastinating and work.

If your reading this roomies I swear I'll be back by soon and I may as well just mail the rent.

;)

Inspiration (a.k.a. - a swift kick in the A$$)

I balanced at the edge of the skate park, outfitted head to toe with safety gear considering how I would umm...."drop in". I felt all silly on my big long wheelbase mtn bike, and I suddenly got a bit nervous and shy. Then I watched these guys just tear it up for a while.

The pictures absolutely do not do justice to their skills. These guys were dropping in the side of an 8ft+ bowl, playing follow the leader up the nearly vertical sides, and spinning 360 degrees on one wheel!




As I stood watching in awe of their raw determination and incedible talent I noticed that they were just plain having fun. It reminded me that's what it is all about. It's not about how fast you are, or how big you go, etc....it's about whether you had fun.

So get on your bike, look silly, and have some frikken fun. ;)

Ohhh...I almost forgot. You can't tell but those wheelchairs are not your everyday equipment. Skate wheels in the front, Spinnergy wheels in the back (red chair), rear suspension (black chair), and i'm sure there are more bells and whistles I'm forgetting. The guy in red (Scott) teaches, competes and is a public speaker! Check out his website at www.wheelchairskater.com
