Welcome to my page that will explain to all you hard core Mt. Bikers that SKIING really is more FUN! I admit I too own a great Mt. Bike and that it is fun, BUT not nearly as fun as making first tracks on a snow covered mountain- whether it be on skis or a board! (I would NEVER trade my Rossis skis for a Cannondale, Gary Fisher, Trek, Specialized, Diamond Back...)
Any submissions are more than welcome- just send them to Me! (Michelle Schonzeit) Read on and WISH FOR SNOW!!!!
Why Skiing is Better!
You can't make first tracks on rock or grass!
You can't bike in the WINTER.
Snow is softer to fall on than rock.
If you break your neck biking ski patrol can't take you down in a sled- They leave you there and you make a nice mogul for us skiers in winter.
You can't CARVE on a bike!
It is very unlikly to 'pop' a ski.
Snow tastes better than dirt.
