Ron, you are right. Nothing conditions you foir skiing like cycling and especially riding hills. I find cycling a close second to skiing and once I get over the initial depression of the ski season ending, I get quite excited about spending more time on the bike. Of course in CA we cycle all year long and this really helps during ski season as well. We have awesome climbs out here, MT Tam is in my backyard with 2700 feet of vert with US 1 (the coastal highway) on one side of it. In the east bay we have MT Diablo (3600 vert) and Mt Hamilton (4500 vert) and all are awesome places to cycle. If anyone comes to the bay area and wants to do some great cycling, send me a PM and I will show you around.

I am biased but there really is no more beatiful place to cycle than out on US 1 in Marin County!!

Sounds like everyone is shredding it with staying in shape!! Very nice!!
