| X-C skiing 2:00:00 [2]7.5 mi (16:00 / mi) +30m 9:49 / km | |
| A fun outing with all the usual suspects plus a few more to celebrate SB's birthday . Skied from Wirth all the way S to Brownie Lake- Cedar Lake- Lake of the Isles , Calhoun and to the pizza place at Uptown. JJ (thankfully without speed suit) stayed with us for about 1 km then sped off and skied 3x the distance . Some fun hills in Wirth - SW area very nice and open due to buckthorn removal) . The wilderness to city transition felt weird getting off skis 100 yards away from busy uptown bus station after 7 miles of skiing in the park .
We celebrated the big 50 for SB in good style (note: the very nice large selection of beers from all over the world was enjoyed by many of the group but some folks who will remain nameless stuck (desperately) to their "bud lite" and other such watery concoctions. Oh well....one day they may appreciate the finer points of life .............. | ||

Didn't keep track of mileage consumption (km/beer)........ Had a fun year with lots of great events and fun outings with everyone ! Same again for 2008! Ian | ||
