Day One

Well we now have a few more members and had a chance to get out today. Even for an hour it was good to shake-off the dust. Pretty cold though with -35 windchill. I think this will be a great year, looking forward to some great days out and socials after with a good crew.

Go Time

The fields look good. Right now I will be riding from RR12 start, or the Veteran's Park launch (near the sliding hill). Linda's is no go until I get confirmation.
Please send me an email ASAP so I can update a phone list.

Cheers!

Well the Crossfield Kiting crew dropped in for King Andy's going away party on Friday. It was good to get together and I think it is a good start to our year. King Andy will be missed, who will be that european voice of reason, "why don't you just do it? it's easy!!!".

But really, we all wish Andy and Loretta a safe trip and good wind. Keep us informed of what you are doing and send an e-mail once in a while to brag about the heat and constant wind.

Cheers!

The King Is Leaving!

Hey guys, King Andy and Loretta will be leaving us on the 29th of October. I guess they have had enough of the winters here and are driving the "HUT" down to the East Coast of Mexico in search of sun, and constant wind. Come on out to our place and say SIANARA and have a few beers. They will be out around 6pm on the evening of the 23rd (friday). If you haven't been to our place in Crossfield, just send me an e-mail or call my cel (get the number from my Spindrift Photography site).

See you there!!!

VROOM VROOM!!!

Yes, one little early snowfall has a few of us waking up. Are you out there? Turn on your aggregators, the blog is up and running and we are cleaning the gear for the whitestuff.

On a sad note, we will be losing the King (Andy). King Andy and Loretta will be moving to the Mexican Coast for the winter to kite the wet-stuff. We will be checking in with them from time to time just to see how misserable they will be. Hah, suckers.

Stay Tuned!

Not Really A Bird...

Just a quick news flash! I guess King Andy and Barrett were getting some good hill wind at Crowfoot Crossing when a gust took Andy up and dumped him down the hill. He is currently recovering with a few bruised ribs (and ego no doubt). The good news is he can still drink beer and it gives some of us a chance to catch up to him.

See image for his description of the incredible event.

Not Too Bad

Well, we got our chance to check out the Airdrie sites. The ground was smooth but a few too many gofer holes and King Andy ended up breaking his board.

Apparently some sick people are going to check out the remaining soft ice on the local lakes. If your interested, Contact King Andy and see what he is up to.

I will be racing in this weekends' "Where's The Fire" adventure race at Mountain Aire Lodge. Check out the site at J2 adventures.ca and follow the link to the tracking page to follow us if your interested. Team Couch-Recon.

Have a good one!
