The Sweitzers: The owners of the West Hill Shop, as of July 13, 2004 Jim and Diny Sweitzer have lived in Putney since 1998 and have two sons. They all have participated in cycling and cross-country skiing throughout the years. Jim can be seen riding his Independent Fabrications Ti Crown Jewel painted in custom West Hill panels, his Jamis Dakar Pro mountain bike, his steel Marinoni Fango 'cross bike or commuting on the old Gary Fisher decked with lights, fenders and sometimes the BOB trailer. Diny spends less time trail riding these days, and more time road biking on her Specialized Ruby Comp or commuting and dirt-road riding on her souped up Specialized Sequoia. During the winter months, they wish for the fluffy stuff, whether for classic or skate skiing, or foraging in the woods for untracked or lift service tele.
Their story:We met in Bozeman, Montana, in the early eighties telemark skiing the slopes of Bridger Bowl Ski Area. We spent those out-west years playing hard: skiing, biking, hiking, and camping. It was the shared enjoyment of these activities that ultimately brought us together. While residing in Massachusetts Jim did the 9 to 5 as a senior project manager for an environmental consulting company, while Diny freelanced in the video production industry as an editor. We made our move to Putney, Vermont, in 1998 and wonder why we took so long to find this very special community. It felt just right from the very first day we arrived.
