Cross Country Sking in London
When I saw this cross country skier in Hyde Park I had a bit of a laugh, I hadn't seen anything like it before. But then, I came across the story of the Brazillian Olympic cross country skier, Hélio Freitas so the joke is probably on me.

post a commentWe have quite a few of these zipping around the Rosebowl parking lot (Pasadena).
... and all it would need is a bit of snow to do the real thing. Not much around here either.
The parkas indicate at least the weather is cool. Also, this guy is about to run into a traffic jam. I hope he is not going to fast.
never seen that sight here. all skiers go to the snowy mountains here.
Julia - I have to think he is training.... nobody would do this for fun, surely?
Luggi - Isn't the rosebown a football stadium? What a wonderful picture - I think they might be a bit vulnerable to a tackle, though.
Bob - but if he had snow it would look sensible! (never too certain about using skis to go uphill, though)
Denton - LOL!
midnitebara - not too many mountains in Park Lane! (otherwise I'd be there....)
