bah! long story...short. i get splinted up @the ER in truckee. sign the 05/06 broken wrist banner of shame. drive to my buddy's in reno. pop some vicodin. wake up the next day & ride for 5 hours @mt. rose, another place w/ a bear valley kinda vibe. i had ridden there once before but only as an ultra-newb.
i've been jones-ing to head up since, but i'd much rather have this cast off just to be safe. it comes off next tues. just in time for a li'l 2-day run in south lake on wed & thur.
keep us posted dates for the this season's 1st i-club trip to bear.
btw, whaddup, justin! you, too, li'l jefe!

Sorry for the break man. That's week. Least you got to ride.
I've been there done that. Shoot I did the same thing. Got up and my wrist was bent 90%...hand strait up from my arm. I yell at my bro to wait cause I thought I broke it. He just kept going. So I snapped it back down and road all day. Road all year actually. Figured out like 5 years later that I really did fracture it. chiropractor went to crack it and said...oh your broke your wrist...I said no. he said...um yeah...there's suppose to be a bone right here and stuck his finger into my wrist..haaa.
good reason I stay out of the parks these days. Booooo...boooooooo parks no good for fat old men with $1000 knee braces on..haaaaa.

i usually do this, too. i guess i'm getting lazy or took it for granted. i was seriously caught off-guard when i fell off. such a flukey kinda thing, man.
YESSS!!!!! wow...i had never taken the stuff before. nice li'l feeling, but definitely not something to be hopped up on if ya need to drive in the mtn's.

when I blew my knee out I got a couple vicodin and went to the bar. Where a couple shots of whiskey and a beer later I was doing jumping jacks in the bar and about to grab my board and hit the slopes.......my brother came in and went....oh isht dude wtf are you doing!!!! sit down.
Mind you this was less than half an hour after they told me my leg was broken..... doc at first aid said it looked like I broke the top of my tipia.

Last post them I'm outtie....gotta work at 9. (Anyone wants to come out to Molly Magee's in Mtn. View of Castro. Ask for Ray.....my last night working...quit last night)
anyways...update to my trip.
Tuesday night drove up..stopped at UCKK. 6 shots of espresso later (2 triple's) I hit the road at what.... 11:30ish?
I go smoken up the road and get to my cabin in arnold at 1:35pm. Cracked out of my mind I fall asleep at like 3am probably. Wake up at 7. Grab a quick bite to eat.....eggo's and OJ. hit the road and ride all day. FREAKIN SICK!!!!!!! Wed a.m. was dope. deep pow many many turns of untouched. Lets just say I was like the 4th person down tigger if anyone knows bear valley.
End of the day I'm riding one of my lesser know patties for the last run and I go into full back leg cramp cussing rampage. Sitting in the snow OB with nobody but my brother around thinking I'm hosed I pound a bottle of water and make a few killer turns and come out alive.
crash out around midnight. Wake up at 7am thursday. Eggs. toast. OJ. Hit the road. Ride all day. Warm as all hell outside. Still TONS of turns available. Did like 3 runs in my favorite spots...>I tell no lie when I tell you that my brother and I did 3 runs of oh....300 yards of untouched lines. Maybe more...probably more. (as jeff.jeff.cliff.justin...they've been there)
Friday I'm damn near dead when I wake up in the morning and I head up the road a bit later in the day after eggs. bacon. OJ. vitamin water.
Get up there and do some fire lines down the groomers until I find my brother at 2 in the afternoon...I came up about 2 hours late.....
We ride ride ride. Then blast out a couple of runs in the very wet powder in my favorite spot. Go home. I hit up tricity. Went to work. Started work at 9. Got home at around 3:40 am this morning.....
LONG FREAKING FEW DAYS!!! But so worth it.

I got back from a midweek trip jan 4-6. My friend's family had a giant house at northstar. It was sorta depressing how warm and slushy it was. They only had one park open and none of the good rails 
I think I ended up drinking at the house more than boarding.
