I've always felt more at home on a bike than on skis. Although skiing is a huge part of my life, biking is just what I love to do. Slalom, BMX, Downhill and Freeriding. I just flat out love it. The feeling of thrusting tires through tight corners on a dual slalom course, or floating and flowing a rhythm section is a feeling that can not be compared, not even skiing.
Riding is great.
You buy a bike and the rest is free. No season passes or any other stuff.
