I've used MK's size 9s (grey ones) both times. I'll get there as soon as I can, but if you guys are ready to go, do so leaving the kit at the desk and I'll join you on the slope.

No sure if any of you guys are in the market for some size 81/2 to 9ish Garmont Veloces, or some Riva2 bindings, but I've put details up on the "For Sale" thread.

Enjoyed it a lot, even managed to link three or four turns towards the end of the session. Don't think I've ever stood at the top of Milton Keynes and been concerned about how steep it is!

I am kinda in the same boat as others time wise and looking at richards schedule he is away for a fair bit over the next few months. I think it will be difficult to schedule a weekend date that suits all....
could be tele training turns into an "off season" activity at MK which is cool by me, should we hold until say April ish?

skimottaret, that would work for me.

PhillipStanton, 9th might work for me which one are you thinking? the 10:15 or 12:30 one? GrahamN, fancy it as well?
ski, perhaps next season on the DIY, but very tempting....

skimottaret - I'm not sure whether I'm an "early turner" or a "tele improver". I was going to plump for the latter, but could be talked into anything at this stage!

PhillipStanton, Im thinking the latter as well mainly so i dont need to get out of bed too early...

skimottaret - I've signed onto the two tele-improver sessions. Are you coming?

PhillipStanton, we also need to make sure that skimottaret is better than skimottaret junior at least one thing. It might well have to be telemarking...

Sundays would be better for me. Saturday second preference.

bump.. anyone fancy any telemarking this summer and autumn. MK have binned all their tele gear so you would either have to have your own stuff or arrange with Richard P.
I wouldnt mind getting a regular monthly slot set up and whoever turns up turns up. Ideally we could pursuade richard to come along but he is a bit busy and hard to get a hold of.
How about sundays say noon. The race team trains till 11 (12 in the summer) and it would be too busy to be alongside them any earlier.

Bump... hey all telemarkers. I just had a few mornings on tele gear in Mottaret and had a blast. Coincidentaly I had an email from Richard P today wondering if we would be interested in a session starting in April or so once the season is over with.
Any takers before i get back to him? I would be up for the occasional lesson/ session.
