Vancouver 2010

For some reason, I'm looking forward to the Winter Olympics this year.

I used to love watching the likes of Zurbriggen and The Herminator barrelling down an icy mountain at 80mph with no brakes, and bantamweight Japs and Finns jumping off a hill for 130m+.

And how sick is going down an icy tube at 80mph with your face a couple of inches off the deck?

Skeleton Luge?

I'm well looking forward to it, mostly because some of it will be held in Whistler, and I just had my honeymoon there so I'll have a spiritual connection to there for the rest of my life I think.

Several of the tea-tray crew (sorry team! ) train in Bath and seem perfectly normal - they must be very good at hiding their nutteriness!
