Chris' Christmas ski
I decided to brave the -12C cold but my car was not very enthusiastic. It started eventually but did not sound very happy. Up to Partille golfbana again and today I felt like it would be perfect. I put blue glide wax on with an actual iron so today would be great. And my kick waxing also looked professional. So why did I hopelessly fail again???
Glide? Not a shit. Kick? Plenty since I had no glide. Tracks? These were pretty crap also. I stopped after only 1 lap. I really didn't need this experience and I am thinking of training something different until my new skis arrive. Too many of these passes will kill my confidence. So, Pölder, what happened? An email said the skis were sent but Posten says they are stuck in Jönköping?
To top it off, I could not even get out of the parking lot because of the ice. I would personally like to slap the environmentalists that decided odubbade vinterdäck are da shit. They are shit. Completely worthless! Maybe they would like to ride in the backseat of my car while I drive through Öjersjö's 500 traffic circles and feel how the backend goes out in every one.
Good...now I have cleared my system and can enjoy Christmas day.
