Breck wedding of the year!

Hey guys - sorry its been a while since I wrote on the blog - the past week has been absolutely manic! Our friends Dave and Tanya had their wedding on Saturday so the few days before that was spent meeting all the other guests, riding with them around Breck, rehearsal dinners, etc - and that was even before the wedding!

The few days before the wedding was basically more and more snow - on the Thursday night we actually got hit with 11 inches courtesy of a huge snowstorm - whilst that was great for snowboarding (and I assure you it was great!), it also made it impossible for some of the wedding guests to get to Breckenridge as they closed all the freeways! Fortunately the sun came out on Friday afternoon which cleared the roads and allowed all the guests to make it on time for the Saturday ceremony.

A few happy snaps below:


Josie and I had a fabulous time at the wedding - we only knew a handful of guests, however everyone was super friendly and the drinks flowed very nicely - Josie seemed to rather enjoy the champagne and margaritas thank you very much :-) Certainly the funniest incident of the night was when the groom and his groomsman took off their shirts and wore only their waistcoats and ties - I think its fair to say alcohol played a huge role in that ;-) They came out either looking like Manpower or the Village People - I will let you decide which...




We are planning on leaving Breck at the end of the March for a 1 month tour around the USA. Since we have been here we hae missed out Mountain Biking so we have actually booked ourselves into a 6 days mountain bike tour around Moab, Utah in April - although we haven't ridden in a few months hopefully our current fitness regime will keep us going otherwise it will be a loooooooong 6 days!

Well given that its time we start looking for bike gear now .... retail therapy awaits!
