Ski Area Orthopods and Neurosurgeons now have a Summer Job surge.
Almost as exciting as watching soccer.
"Shocker!"
Where's the uphill?
Mountain bike opening of The Proposal.

Yeah. Any pussy can use gravity to go down. Big whoop.
I wanna see the guys taking that trail up the mountain.
Wife and I own a cabin about two miles from there. Psst! It's available for short-term rental.
Where's the uphill? They're riding a chairlift up.
"Where's the uphill?"
Downhill is a specialty for some racers. It's not easy. As with skiing. But, yeah, they've got a ski lift, it's a ski mountain, off season.

Haha. That's about the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Look at these "pussies".

Those MTB park trails look like fun...buff, fast, not too technical, but these are the kind of trails I enjoy the most.

Ah, an earn your turns guy!! So when you downhill ski you eschew the lifts, strap on the skins and ski to the top? Sweet. Improbable but sweet.
Does it ever rain there?
I enjoy uphills more than downhills, on a bike. That's what all those gears are for.
The climb limit is where the bike goes over backwards; or, on loose ground, where the rear wheel slips.
Uphills is where a bike is most efficient. All the energy you put in is saved as height, not wasted moving air.

If god wanted us to ski we would have been given wooded feet.
