snorovr Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 i have 0 race experience, 0 race skis, and 0 anything that has to do with racing. but, i do like to drink, and i do like to ski. I was in the same boat last year. Found an old set of carving skis for $175 and skied on them a little bit the week before Beer League started. Ended up running what I think were some pretty competitive times, and had a great time in the process. Unfortunately I start a new job at the end of the month and am not sure if I can make it up in time to do Beer League this year. I haven't found out my schedule yet. Kinda bummed... You can use my carving skis if I still have them and can't do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissa Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 i have 0 race experience, 0 race skis, and 0 anything that has to do with racing. but, i do like to drink, and i do like to ski. I did the beer league at Sno one Thursday last year and I managed to get a bronze. Now, remember, I basically learned how to really ski last year (I don't count my few trips out a decade ago when I was in high school). So, if I can get a bronze, I am SURE you'll do well!!

Johnny Style Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Problem is that I'll be gone two of the Mondays and I suck at Nastar..so I'm going to stick with the occasional Thursday night Nastar..I really think Atomic Jeff should join your team..and not be such a sellout on First Gread Teachers team.. I doubt there will be enough interest to ever field a seven man team on a given week. You can race the other five weeks. I know I'll be in CO during one of the races.

Brian Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 How much is it per night? I think Sno's was like 12 bucks and that included a ticket. Can't beat that. I might be down.. Should see if Bob(Bobert540) is down.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobert540 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 I am very interested... If we can get a team together that would be great. Like Brian said, what is the cost per night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toast21602 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 if the price is reasonable, i will definitely do it. there would probably be a race or two that i would miss, but hopefully somebody else could fill in or something.

Brian Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 Monday is mens day at Blue mountain so 24 dollar evening lift tickets for Men..Ladies have to pay 34 bucks.. LOL, I thought you were joking until I went to their site to check. That's awesome... I've never heard of a "Men's night" outside an Alternative Lifestyles club.

Bobert540 Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Let us know once you find out. I wouldn't mind racing but it all depends on how much it's going to cost if lift tickets are not included or discounted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobert540 Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 I may have a female racer interested in joining as well. Now that we seem to have enough interest, who is definite they want to do this. I can call tomorrow and get the rest of the details. I have friends on other teams that I will talk to as well.
