There are plenty of easier courses with less vertical, plenty of flat track options also.
a sandwich doesn't have to be crap just because its cheap.....I've had some stellar sandwiches that I'd rather eat than expensive cuisine!! Sandwich making is a real artform!
Yeah, fair call Tubbs, those haggis sangers are ace. (laughs)
BTW how do you post emoticons? I can't seem to get the hang ot it -

Yes, thanks for asking.
We had a 70cm dump in the Australian snow fields over the past couple of days. Not a lot by Japanese standards but the folks down here are very pleased. -

Yes it is good fun, the graphics are great with ski lifts, ropeways, chalets etc. It makes the time go quickly. The bike has gears & you actually have to steer the bike while pedalling - if you go over the edge or hit the wall you get a time penalty.They are linked to an internet program and you can save results & check your progress on line. There are over 40 different courses.
The gym owner told me they cost AUD$9000 each

We have a mountain bike at my gym with a programmable video game type screen.
One hour on the "alpine course" with some mean hills burns 1100 calories & lifts my heartrate up to a peak of 150'ish.
Trouble is I need someone to carry me down the stairs when I am finished!!
