I've become an old man on an old man's bike

Just had a sneaky snow weekend in a lodge in Perisher.
Snow was pretty good for the time of the season.

Course there were a few spills, one I didn't see. Apparently Nick squared off on Vince and tried to turn them
into a human snowball, loosing skies and sliding down the mountain 30+ metres..... with a small bit of carnage in the aftermath.

The only time I stopped on the mountain to catch whatever action I could with the G7 this happened
as Nick was trying to tell me and my fogged glasses he was coming.
A few more snaps on the OzMonsters Flickr if you wanna take a look.

cheers
Matty...

crash? what crash? I simply got a little tired on the way down and decided to sit for a rest :-)

Now, the real crash was with Dock and I getting a little competitive, which resulting in a small coming together of the snow hardware, some 360 degree spinning action (according to onlookers) and a big mofo of a slide down the hill with me laughing my head off!

Docks twofiddy is an absolute weapon on the highway, a overbearing sootin' machine!!!

There's more that could be said, if we are allowed to speak, but you know how it goes... what goes on tour etc etc ......

Okay so it was a little lie down compared to the one I missed but from my side of the camera it was a bit of a laugh.
What happens on Snow stays on Snow. We'd never get up to anything!

Not the car the F2fiddy (F250)
Little difficult carrying skies and snowboards on the back of the monster, chains are a challenge also!

Surely there was room for a Duc or two - isn't there a super trailer with the F250?

So so so soft. ;-)

Rode my bike down to Falls Creek(August skiing) last year arriving at 9pm at night to avoid being busted for riding into the park.

Cold, cold, cold....but very fun!

not sure Mostro is able to comment on being soft at the moment - after all, he's the one who piked out of the trip and can only read about it!
