Other information that could be of interest to the media

I love to ski fast. Downhill is my favorite event and I have been clocked at 125 kms an hour, which is faster than my 1991 Volkswagen Jetta can do!
My long term objective is make the Canadian Alpine Ski Team and go to the 2010 Winter Olympic in Vancouver.
