Keep in mind, the fist time I saw a person doing XC skiing was mere minutes before I first got on them myself. My March 2007 trip to Austria, specifically to get some tuition. I didn't own other equipment than boots, as I figured size 13 would be hard to rent at times.
Today, I own many pairs of skis. 1 pair of which, I have used this winter in Switzerland.
One unused pair I have, was the Salomon Equipe 10 Skate. I now got a second pair, as the deal was so good.
I read all the time about the need to have a second pair ready for racing when the wax conditions work out differently than anticipated. And I do plan to race, as clumsy I may be.
So, need help? Or a better way to spend less money than I used to on bikes?
My name is Jan Gerrit Klok, call me J. I also go by Cloxxki. This blog will mark my progress as I start from zero. A desperately out-of-shape cyclist aiming to become fitter than ever, but in a sport hardly existing my his home country. My country gets on average one or 2 XC-skiable days per winter. Although that's improving quickly. Goal: someday race XC, and not off the back of the field. And new goal: deliver a good Winter Triathlon (coach wanted).
