Birkie Guide

The Unofficial Guide to the @Birkie

[. @ofsevit]

About 30 people like me ski the @birkie and seven weeks later will run the @bostonmarathon. 12 of them talked about it on my podcast! https://t.co/8cQi9pXzxv

Pretty glad the @birkie was last Saturday, not this Saturday.

Hey Elite Wave:

We regret to infirm you that you will be skiing for second tomorrow.

This gentleman has already won the @birkie

[Birkie Guide @BirkieGuide]

Hayward looking good and the lake solid after thousands of Korte/PH skiers. Fever getting real bad.

[Birkie Guide @BirkieGuide]

Great skiing today at Mukwonago trails, 20 minutes east of hayward on highway 77. A good pre-Birkie ski, 2, 4, 7.5 and 13.5km loops.

North End Trail recon. Anything off the Birkie Trail has had one pass and is soft. Some trails just rolled.

The Birkie trail, however, is solid, plowed off and fast. Saturday is going to be fun.

[Birkie Guide @BirkieGuide]

A small subset of @pioneermidwest’s skis to wax. They’ll be fast.

[Birkie Guide @BirkieGuide]

Who is excited?

@BSmithwood Miss you bud!

Cowbell Fever podcast must have made it to the big time: it's receiving spam!

[Birkie Guide @BirkieGuide]

Tonight's weather update podcast is going to drop at a very particular time.

So the Cowbell Fever podcast XML feed was corrupted for some users because of a stray "&" which wasn't an "&". It only affected certain RSS parsers for whatever reason and should be fixed now.
