FUN FUTURE

Australian Mountain Bike mag., July 2009, page 10.

There is a photo of a rider dropping off a 2m high ramp. Nothing special about that, except that the rider is female and 65!! Wow! Ursula Berchtold has a job guiding people down Thredbo's downhill run and she holidays in Whistler - lucky lady. And she sure doesn't look 65.

Being fairly new to downhilling, I have often wondered how long I can keep doing it - "at my age". Well, if Ursula can do it at 65, that gives me at least another 17 years - fabulous! That will make me one very grateful gravity granny! What a fun future retirement to look forward to. Go Ursula!
