I went to Batawa Ski Hill on Sunday for the fatbike race (<– Click for photos!), and to my surprise people were skiing. Go figure right? As it turns out, they were doing their puddle jump on the same day. So I couldn’t resist taking a break from the biking to check out a bunch of people wearing less than seasonal clothing, skiing down the hill, and jumping into a huge puddle of water.

Skiing (or sliding in a makeshift cardboard boat – see below :-)) into a huge puddle of water in the freezing cold sounds like a great idea right? Well it sure looked fun, but I must say I was glad to be taking this event in from the sidelines!
