Roller Skiing is starting.\u00a0\u00a0 Adam and I have been out\u00a0 a few times and last evening Cody and I put in a couple of laps.\u00a0 The weather is warm.\u00a0 Returning athletes normally ski at Washington Ridge and occasionally old State Highway 40.\u00a0 We normally plan to start skiing at the stated time.\u00a0 If you cannot organize your own transport make sure you contact the coaches who may have some seats available.\u00a0 After boots and poles are allocated we normally do not go to school but meet at the Ridge.\u00a0\u00a0 Meeting place is about 1.5 miles from Highway 20 on Conservation Camp Road (right by the warning notices before you get to the camp).\u00a0 Parents are welcome to attend.\u00a0 In the past many have gone for walks or bike rides while we train.\u00a0 We can always use help with video feedback.

\nEquipment<\/b>
\nFor your first time you must make arrangements to meet coach at school to get boots and poles.\u00a0 You must provide your own helmet, gloves and water bottle.\u00a0 Over the summer gloves are pretty important to prevent blisters – bicycle gloves are best.\u00a0 Whether you leave your water bottle at the cars (we are back around every 25 minutes) or carry it in a holster is up to you – I always carry mine as well as my cell phone in a waist pack.\u00a0\u00a0 Coach will bring roller skis for you as long as you sign up.<\/p>\n
