I’m looking forward to going to Colorado and throwing in snow. Its way better than mats, except the whole slipping thing. Last time we practiced on slippery mats I ended up with some bruised ribs and a sore neck. Man, I can’t wait to throw Shake into 3 feet of snow.
Last time I saw snow, I was drunk out of my gord, lost my shoe and my keys, and kept slipping on the frozen ass hill.
CPA stood on the balcony and laughed.
That was the night I busted that dudes face…
..I sense a good story evolving

I sometimes train outside in winter, even there is some snow. [/B]
Yes. There is something kinda magical about training at night, no lite except that being reflected off the snow and clouds, with a light snow falling and just the slightest breez… Too bad it doesn’t actually snow much in Denver… 
Yeah, not much here, but plenty within 30 min.
Yeah, but then you gotto deal with the yuppies stairing at you and yelling at you for causing thier kids to think violent things.:rolleyes: I like going down to the Green Belt at like 10pm on a really cold night. You just can’t beat the ambiance.
Where is the Green Belt?
Best line.. someone came up to a group working out in the park, this guy got a little lippy, then asked what we were doing, and a training partner fired back, practicing how to deal with tools like you… not how I would have handled it, but kinda funny…
?!?!? You’ve lived in Thornton without knowing about the Green Belt?
It’s that giant park-like strip that follows the canal all over North Adams County. I personally like to run along its very nice trail till I’m good and warm, then find a little meddow-like area and work my froms.
my story of breaking that guys face is somewhere here on the forum…I guess do a search on “Kerrville”, and if that yeilds no results pm.
Lived in Thornton, usually went riding instead of running, so headed toward where I live now (in the foothills). I know what you’re speaking of now however.
we were practicing @ Bradley Park and some dude was too scared to walk up and ask us to stop throwing each other so the cunt sends his wife…what a qweef.
…
^LOL^. Funny. What is it with people and interrupting sparring/martial arts, etc., anyway?
Later…
you called that guy a qweef! LOFL!
about the winter–i drink lots of very hot tea while i’m training. and soon as i’m done i throw all my clothes (there’s about 3 layers) in the dryer and take a hot shower.
I miss Florida… I enjoy and thrive in humid heat
Yeah, I miss it too, tho I don’t plan on staying up here forever. I don’t thrive in humid heat but the weather down there is much nicer to the joints. But hey, TN ain’t so bad, I always thought springtime in Appalachia was very nice!
So true, springtime is awesome. Made a promise to myself to hit the trails again in the coming spring. Some students are avid hikers, thought we could set out to find Shangrila! 
One of my classes (Saturday) is held at Dragon Park, mainly to get out in the fresh air. But this time of year, it`s week to week.
Are you Beantowners training out in the snow today? Get ready for round two, it`s on the way… Brrr.
One thing about the cold, it seems to bring out those old war wounds…
Do you think any f you would modify your style if it was say 5 degrees out? r colder. that wuld be a cool fight scene. Jet Li being too cold to jump kick, or hugging his opponent for warmth
…
LOMALMAOAAO!!! teh seen he sed was teh foonny!!!111!
Latre…

Nah, today I practiced Shovel-Fu. Trying to un-bury my truck, between the snow and the snowplows it’s had a bad day. I think it’s a lost cause, though.
Also trying to keep the fire-escape window on the top floor clear, every couple hours snow piles up against it. 48 hours of snow … This is some wild s***.
