Alright!! Finally got to go to the snow today. About half the people that were supposed to go still flaked out on us, but there were still a few of us that are fuckin hardcore!!!! We went up to Wrightwood, if any of you know the area. Everybody that saw us dragging that bedliner across the snow were staring and we got a lot of shocked looks. We ended up getting quite a crowd though. Whether they were there to just watch the ride or if they were there to see if we would end up with massive lacerations and skull fractures eludes me, but it made people come by either way. The first run we did was insane. It was a good 200 foot hill on about a 45 degree angle. But it wasn't smooth at all. There were a lot of large bumps and shit that would completely throw you out if you weren't hanging on for dear life. But the first time down there were 5 of us in it, and the 3 in the back, (myself included) got tossed out and sent my other 2 friends careening straight into a callbox pole on the side of the highway. It looked like a car wreck! The bedliner caught air and spun around, and then proceeded to skid into the street. The road was closed off at the time so there wasn't any traffic. They fucked up that callbox pole though. It was all bent over more than half way down to the ground. If they hadn't hit the pole, they would have went straight across the road, launched off of the snow bank on the other side, and went onto about a 50 foot drop into the trees. The snow up there had turned to pretty much ice, so everything was slick as shit, and fast as all hell. We ended up taking it to a slightly less steep hill that was, I would guess, a good 500 feet to the bottom. We ended up riding that hill quite a bit and got some of the runs on video. Some other people were also there and video taped it too, and they said they ran a website and were gonna put it up there. So when I get the link I'll post it and you guys can go check it out. That last hill we were on had a ramp on it and we were catching some air off that thing. Not a lot, but it's still fucking crazy when you get going pretty fast with 8 people stuffed in a bedliner and hit some ramp that sends all of you airborn and down into another ravine. Fun times ladies and gentlemen, fun times. But now I'm sore as fuck and need a massage. I know I'm gonna feel it in the morning Well that was pretty much my day. Hope you all had a good time too. I'm gonna go kick back for the rest of the night. I'm out this bitch.....

Damn! That reminded me of Pensylvania, and sledding at Valley Forge. Man, I miss the snow. I wish I lived somewhere that had winter.
