You won't regret it....nothing quite like the sound of these railing @ 90mph through the corners on a mile oval. You can hear the tires howling on the dirt.

You're 1 of the 1st UK'rs I've met that actually skis....this is where I learned how to ski... https://skibowl.com/ It was only 50 miles from home...we'd go a handful of times every season...mainly on Friday & Saturday nights. By 7pm most people would pack it in for the night or just head for the bar....so we could do top to bottom runs w/ No lift lines....till 10pm. The cabin in the middle of this pic is called the Warming Hut & it's been there for well over 80 yrs...it's a great feature of this place as you don't have to get ski to the bottom to have a break....have a beer, warm up & then back @ it! My dad put me on a pair of skis there when I was 4 y/o...one of the best gifts he ever gave me.... & my brothers. I've ski'd every ski area on Mt. Hood & the snow has the tendency to be a little heavy & sometimes wet....(known as the Cascade Concrete) but if you can ski it, you can ski ANYwhere. And compared to the snow on the east side of OR, which is noticeably dryer & faster....there's thigh-deep powder sometimes....& is fortunately where I live now.

I do remember that tale.... just about as funny as the time he broke his nose riding his boy's DT 125....

Brings back some great memories @Nute.... spent alot of years night skiing on Mt. Hood here in OR. That 1st pic is nothing but a Ski freeway...

Gotta admit, that'd give Bob's Vespa a run for it's money. Hmmm...maybe a new thread subject?....Battle of the Scooters. That oughta really make Buck's day.

A buddy of mine from high school is heavily into drag racing....a definite Ford guy (we used to give him all kinds of grief for that) lol. This is his current stallion... a '65 Falcon Futura w/ a 347 ci SBF...punched out to 363 ci w/ dual quads & a tunnel ram. His qualifying time reads 10.05 but he's actually got this beast to run a 9.93...pretty damn quick for a 60 y/o car!...
