For the past week and a half I had been getting back into the cycling groove after taking a bit of a break after my Australia/New Zealand trip.

However, this morning my bike time took a bit of a hit due to the foot of snow that fell in the Boulder area last night and today.

Therefore, Frank and I headed up to Eldora for a bit of xc-skiing action in the balmy ten degree fahrenheit weather.

  Frank at the house the morning getting ready to drive up to Eldora.

 Me at Eldora………….pre-ski.

 Me at Eldora post ski!  It was cold and I ended up freezing my fingers for the third consecutive day.  Today however, I grew some nice ice stalactites (aka icicles) on my winter beard………..which I have concluded is not getting shaved until the new year!

 Frank post ski……..looking a little ragged after I handed it to him all day…….okay……I dropped him once but it was great nonetheless.

Thanks for dragging me to Eldora today Frank.
