Woke up this morning, feeling fine, had something special on my mi-nd...Hang on, where's this going? Yesterday was neige, lots of it, but a very closed mountain. Today was much of the same, but with an extra 40cm on top. The usual "On Hold" trick on the snow report. I was up and ready to go but the vis was approximately 5cm by the look of it. Yep, Mr Goodey you would barely be able to see the end of your nose.
. By 11am it was still on hold and I'd say another 10cm had dropped in the front of the webcam. Couldn't be bothered with a 2 hour drive for half a day's riding so hoped and hoped it wouldn't open.
It didn't. Ferme pour tous le jour. First time I've been loving that news! Bcos tomorrow is shaping up to be the epic day of the season. They're now reporting 65cm+ of light, dry freshies, no wind-loading and bluebird conditions! Only slight downer is it's on a Saturday so the whole of ChCh will be up there. I've gotta get off to bed now as it's gonna be a 6am start for this one.
Got new bindings to farm out tomorrow too - some more Burton Cartels, picked up for a bargain in the Quest sale yesterday...first in best dressed type thing. 40% off thankyou please.
