    Cool Season's far from over (pics)

    May has come up - time for the high routes, coulouirs and steeps. So still a lot of stuff to be done and look forward to.
    I added some pics - not new though, nonetheless I thought I share 'em with you as an appetizer.
    Everybody have fun out there!

    It's the area around the Oberwalder Hut and the Glockner above the Pasterze Glacier, Austrian Alps - the peak is the Fuscherkar Head. Accessible not before end of May when the Glockner High Alpine Road reopens.

    Very Fun pics. Steep and slushy.
    I want a 6" travel 20lb MTB. I found the 20lb MTB, but only good for riders under 87 pounds.

    Here we go - the first real bitch asking that one....

    It was the year when
    - they invented the crank to start car engines
    - the Frenchies brought out pink fashion wear
    - the harnesses had non-adjustable leg loops to squeeze and scramble your balls
    - the Swiss St. Bernhard monks had been the world's only ski manufacturers
    - your granny got her second teeth!!!!

    Cool Euro Retro shots.

    That axe looks like it is about to take you out in a bad way (last photo).

    Well, it's got a preservative for the rear entry, too!

    Anyway, I got some more of those acid-like retro stoke, will bring it on soon.
