Ski skate at Ramsau in Austria on the way back from the Alps.
Ski trails of the 1999 World Champs, where Christian Hoffman

out kicked Thomas Alsgarrd in the relay. Lots of pictures of doped up Russians in 1999 and pictures of Walter Mayer posing with Austrians who peaked well for surprising medals.
Lots of skiers out, some guys with Austrian national suits on.
Gear was dominated by Salomon and Fischer with Atomic a close third. Obviously Cheesy Phil and Bryan Aller have done their work here. The largest number of Atomic boots I've ever seen; factory is close.
Flying from Bratislava to London Thursday. Predicting travel chaos.
