FearNada !
Blimey it's Wednesday already - better write an entry for last weekend.
Saturday was spent taking part in the "FearNada" in Davos. If you think the Megavalanche is silly, check this out: all DH, all on snow (actual ski pistes), mass start (OK only 60-odd people), un-timed and with one winner (everyone else is "2nd"). Biking on real (i.e. deep) snow is a lot harder than I expected, especially when the sun has warmed and softened the snow a bit (which was the case for the actual race which started at 15:30).
Suffice to say that I did badly - Christoph did marginally better but it also wasn't best run of his career. However, it was all a bit of a giggle and, apart from the bruised chin from the Kobe landing on my face during one spectacular stack, no major injuries sustained so all in all, a bit of a result.
