We can't complain about the excitement of Birds of Prey World Cup racing blowing into Beaver Creek ... and even into our own studio.
How lucky are we at Plum to have Cracker frontman David Lowery play an exclusive acoustic version of "Eurotrash Girl" on our own Fresh Tracks studio chairlift? We got a special dose of what's in store before he plugs in and kicks off the Bid Party tonight at the Beav.
Then there's the race scene. We are in the middle of the World Cup Super-Combined as we speak and Swiss racer Didier Cuche is leading after the downhill portion of the event, followed by American Steven Nyman in second and Lichtenstein's Marco Buechel in third.
The slalom portion of the race, however, can change everything. We'll see if these speed specialists can put the brakes on, bust out their short skis and carve around the tightly packed slalom gates.
The cowbells are jangling, people are screaming from every corner in French, German, Italian and all kinds of other languages we can't identify ... and it's an international extravaganza everywhere you look.
If you're not here ... you need to be. Check back later for results and updates.
