I have to say, I am a little dubious about how long I'm going to live for now. At least I can say "I've never fallen off a road bike"
But yes, you can have it. Maybe.It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

Nope, never planted my feet on a snowboard in my life. Contemplating a snow holiday next year though so figured we'd give it a try first.0 -

I picked it up pretty quickly but since i'd had 7 years ski experience prior to that i thought i'd be clever and go off piste, so i fell over a lot. Incidentally the wrist guards i had did more pain than good.YeehaaMcgee wrote:
