Tout Droit: août 2015
http://toutdroit.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Lundi, août 31, 2015. VTT et parcours d'obstacles. Aujourd'hui, alors que j’étais sur ma bécane, je pensais à mon itinéraire en VTT comme à un parcours d'obstacles et chaque fois que je franchissait une section connue du chemin, je venais de surmonter (et survivre! Une difficulté bien spécifique, tout comme si j'avais entrepris de sauter au dessus d'une série d'obstacles des plus variés. Cette nouvelle perspective va-t-elle me permettre d'attendre le « sans faute à vélo ou me porter la poisse? Elles comm...

Tout Droit: juin 2015
http://toutdroit.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Mardi, juin 30, 2015. S'il est vrai qu'un véhicule peut facilement vous tuer lorsque vous êtes à vélo sur la route, il est encore plus facile de se blesser en faisant du VTT. Les blessures horribles et du sang jaillissant de tous cotés font souvent partie du décor! Est-ce que toutes les pistes de VTT devraient être améliorées pour répondre à ces dangers? Publié par Go 11. Mardi, juin 30, 2015. Lundi, juin 29, 2015. Nous sommes tous deux arrivés à la conclusion que les humbles n’héritent pas tout à ...

http://go-11.blogspot.com/2015/08/sundance-un-park-city.html
Sunday, August 2, 2015. Sundance, the un-Park City. Today, we paid a visit to Sundance resort; a mere 45 minute away from Park City, to unwind in that rustic, authentic mountain retreat that enchanted Robert Redford in the late 50s and pushed him to first buy two acres of land for $500 in 1961 for building a cabin on it, before buying the resort's remaining 5,000 acres from the Stewarts, a sheep-herding family who ran the tiny Timphaven ski area.

Go 11: Another art festival
http://go-11.blogspot.com/2015/08/another-art-festival.html
Saturday, August 1, 2015. Every summer, as July turns into August, people living in Park City are treated to a massive art festival that turns Main Street into an art emporium for two and a half day. We've attended it on and off, for the past thirty years. This said, we had a marvelous time riding the bus to, and from the festival. The atmosphere was festive, the passengers all pleasant, and on the way back, they all had a bit to drink which made the journey that much more fun. Well, these observ...Why d...

http://go-11.blogspot.com/2015/08/when-pop-music-works-like-cuisine.html
Wednesday, August 5, 2015. When pop music works like cuisine. Last night we went to see Grace Potter. In concert at Deer Valley. Ms. Potter began her carrer in 2002, with the Nocturnals, a rock band from Waitsfield, Vermont. Some say that her style and energy are reminiscent of Janis Joplin's and I would agree with this statement. While she's a dynamo on scene, we didn't know any of her songs and were – as is always the case with an unknown entity – laboring to catching up. Posted by Go 11. Salomon hikin...

Go 11: June 2015

Tuesday, June 30, 2015. Making mountain biking safer. While a vehicle may kill you when you're biking on the road, it's even easier to get hurt while riding your mountain bike, with some gruesome scratches and spectacular blood stains all over. No, just the easier and most accessible ones that are aimed at more conservative and older users. This would enrich the participation and make it accessible to a large number of adult beginners and senior riders. Posted by Go 11. Labels: mtn. biking. The heat wave...

Go 11: April 2015
http://go-11.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 30, 2015. Beyond someone's wildest dreams. Back in the mid-sixties, Avoriaz was built above Morzine, France, to become the first French ski resort without cars. Just horse-drawn sleds and pedestrian traffic. A bucolic and quiet place if you see what I mean. I guess, Zermatt in Switzerland was the forerunner of that trend. To avoid this, I'd either need to quit the sport, ski less or take on alpine touring! Posted by Go 11. Wednesday, April 29, 2015. Reality, in fact, is that there never s...

Go 11: July 2015

Friday, July 31, 2015. Beijing, with all of its power, money and influence has finally grabbed the winter games. After the legit “snow countries” dropped off like flies in the selection process showing that the Olympics is becoming the exclusive province of totalitarian regimes. Is it the beginning of the end of the IOC? Posted by Go 11. Thursday, July 30, 2015. New Park City branding. Posted by Go 11. Wednesday, July 29, 2015.

Saturday, January 31, 2015. Is Putin more dangerous than Isis? At the moment, all eyes are on Isis and the radical Islamist group is eclipsing Putin's evil. So my question of the day is, should the world be more concerned from Putin than from that amorphous group of crazy Muslims? Posted by Go 11. Friday, January 30, 2015. Working on my skis. I'm not enthused about setting up to do that work, but as soon as I begin, I enjoy it thoroughly. I don't do a perfect job, because when it's time to address th...
