Switzerland after the worlds

After the worlds Robin and I went to Switzerland for some 10 year anniversary fun.

The hills were alive



Looks like a movie set

A nice way to end the trip

Martin congrats again, Eh!!!!!

Kenny nice to see you back at it and having fun. We will be in Sweden Monday so we will hook up there.

Had to miss Cali & Hood for my sk8camps. 48 kids a week. This last one was special as my oldest grandson attended his 1st sk8camp.

Safe travels.

Hood River!!!
On 7/23/2008 Kenny wrote in from United States  (69.223.nnn.nnn)

Martin,

THANKS CHAMP !!! I had the best time in Hood and was overcome with emotion while driving to the race on Friday morning. Most people have no idea the level of pain, suffering and disability that my shattered has presented. Not walking for 6 months the year after not walking for six months has knocked me down a few pegs !!! I am half the man I used to be. I feel so brittle its not funny.

Just to be there ripping with the best racers on the Planet. COSS has the whole world beat to the ground. You, George Pappas and Zack have just pushed the older COSS guys to a new level. When you said you were taking Jason out on the last run, you meant it. Clean runs win and Jason is still the Champion of GS !!!

My glory days are mostly over. Mine were a gift from God. I didn't start racing slalom until I was 36 years old !!!

We always knew the kids were going to take it from us. You have bumped me out.
I was way more comfortable with 6th place than I would have dreamed. I felt like my old self, but my pump timing is off.

We'll see how it shakes out in Sweden. We leave on Tuesday, check out the sites on Wednesday and Thursday, race Friday, hang Saturday and go to Switzerland Sunday - Wednesday. We are so broke its not funny, but after two years on the couch, what the fook.

I am really stoked for you Martin !!! You, Zack, Kyle, Joe are the coolest. I hope Ryder is half as cool and nice as you guys. Maybe he can take you out when you are 30 and he is 17. How cool would that be. The circle of slalom life.

What a long strange trip its been....
On 7/11/2008 Jessie Fifer wrote in from United States  (75.180.nnn.nnn)

Ok, so....my summer started in Spain (where I encountered the craziest bitch ever), I came home, couch surfed for a couple weeks, left for Aspen, Co....went and stayed for about 8 days, saw Jason and Terri Mitchell on the way home, came home, now I may be leaving for Massachusetts to work at a camp geared towards social justice and peace (Google: Camp Kinderland) What a long strange trip its been....Its not over yet!

More music!
On 7/5/2008 Cat wrote in from United States  (76.126.nnn.nnn)

Hey Kenny,
That Shady Grove song is pissing me off.
It took me 2 minutes to figure out how to turn it off! You click up towards the top in the middle to turn the SOB off!

Anyway....... Rene...... good choice with Canned Heat.
Too bad "The Bear" dropped dead of a heart attack in 1981.
He was a great talent. The band still tours, I saw them in Sturgis.

Here's some more:





GRAND FUNK RAILROAD..... One of the best rock bands EVER!
Kenny...... you used to wear your hair like the drummer!

Me?
On 6/10/2008 mikemaysey wrote in from United States  (68.4.nnn.nnn)

Doing pretty well...trying to keep my chops up on the slalom linx as well as taming the wild surf here in San Clemente.

Hopefully Hood will be better for me than JPL was last weekend. That Fadell guy is fast, damn fast...and that Brown Bomber guy, well, he's always a led balloon. Currently, I've got some wheel issues I gotta work out before Hood and I think I'll be back in business.

For some reason I got it in my head that the big wheels (75mm) go faster and every time my stubbornness takes over like that, I get beat someone on small wheels...in this case it was two guys on small wheels. I heard the COSS guys prefer to ride the coned versions of their favorite wheels for traction deficient situations so next time I'm going back to basics and busting out my old coned Avalons if I need extra grip which I suspect will be in Hood.

Anyway, hope the family is well. Hope to see you in Oregon.

Mike
