The Ideal Winter and Goodreads
This is near perfect a Winter one can imagine. What is Winter without the conditions and time to enjoy it, to become immersed in the artic culture? Early snow with cold brings us the stage and the time to perform. Working through the frigid artic temperatures gives us dominion over harsh surroundings and bragging rights. Warm ups allow us to enjoy the season in all its traditional activities. And it gives one long evenings in which to enjoy a good book.
Yes, another one of my books is available for free. Click on image to purchase for $0.00; offer good until January 20th. I hope it doesn’t cause you to throw your electronic device across the room. I am not responsible for any damage. If you enjoy reading, Goodreads is a good social media to join. You can login via Facebook so you don’t need to create another user account with it’s usernames and passwords.
But there are other things to do this weekend. This weekend at Ray’s MTB Indoor Park is the IMBA Weekend. Come on in and learn about IMBA and buy an entry on Saturday and get in on Sunday for free! They are also having a Freestyle Rookie of the Year Contest on February 1st.
The IMBA World Summit will be in Steamboat Springs, CO August 20-24. A new craft brewery seems to be the major interest of those contemplating attending. I myself am wondering if the convention industry itself will collapse in Colorado. Yes, I am talking legalized marijuana. If half a conventions attendees are going off and getting high in Mile High or elsewhere, what would any convention be able to accomplish. I almost suggested that if Metro paid for members to attend the IMBA World Summit that it is only on the condition that they will not waste their time getting wasted on pot.
Congratulations and gratitude to those 22 Metro Mountain Bike members who contributed more than 20hrs of volunteer time to building and maintaining MTB trails. Nearly 1,700 total hours were invested by the club.
The $51 question: What are the titles of the three books I am currently working on? See Charity Jackpot page for details.
