wine, wineries, wine tasting, expensive (but good restaurants), horses, mini horses, ranches, did I mention wine tasting? The town consists of 2x3 blocks without a gas station.

I was urban riding today in Solvang, a town 4mi away. We were so bored.
Also, Michael Jackson's Wonderland ranch is 4mi away.

Don't forget anal retentive, uptight, bearded and bespectacled skintrack nazis all shrouded up in cloudveil.

I claim every skin track I don't bust out by pooping on it. They think it's their dog.


I've literally stepped out of my skis to stomp some bootpack in an area that those bastards started complaining in a newspaper about regarding snowboarders here.

My town (Golden, CO) has the best water treatment facility in the world (Coors).
It should also be known for the smell that the said piss factory generates.

"oh really?! i LOVE the shopping there!"

"yeah...lots of over priced junk that snow birds love."

Seattle... Bad traffic, worse weather and for a city that considers itself to be "ecclectic" I have never seen a higher concentration of fake and trendy.
