This reminds me, how do you lock your skis up at Blue near the Challenge Express? I have two different types of ski locks and could not figure out what the hell you're supposed to do to lock your skis down there. Can't they install the regular SkiLock style for me so that it's easy? I had to leave my Elans outside unattended and unlocked when I went in to get a lift ticket, change my boots, and use the restroom.

Good point. Since I don't care about my $200 Elans anymore I've gotten lazy and just started leaving them sitting out. But with the RTMs I'll be much more cautious. I know mountain management won't do anything if they're stolen, except maybe file a police report. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCat Posted December 25, 2017 Report Share Posted December 25, 2017 1 hour ago, saltyant said: his reminds me, how do you lock your skis up at Blue near the Challenge Express? I have a Ski Key and unless they've changed things around, you can use it at the racks across from the six-pack. If you have flat skis, you can use the snowboard racks by hanging the skis between the bindings. That way too, you can rack two pair of skis, as long as they aren't system bindings. There's often a line at the ski check; I wouldn't care but I already have the ski key, so it's quicker just to use it instead of the check a lot of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll leave my skis unattended when I go to the bathroom..that's about it..in Jackson hole I mooch off atomics jeffs lock and lock my skis with his..on other ski trips I only use upper mountain lodges to eat. Amazing how many people leave $600-$1000 skis unlocked when they go into a bar or restaurant for an hour or two 100 yards from the skier drop off...lots and lots of broke dirtbags in western ski towns..

I regularly hit 47-49 mph, but sometimes the app shows straight lines when it loses the signal, so maybe that skews the speed calculation. That's cruising! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mainly road bike or also mountain bike? That's impressive. I figured you were one of those skinny guys who can eat whatever they want and not gain an ounce based on your Chinese buffet reports.
