Adventure by Bike


Adventure by Bike has summed up this year, thus far, and will continue to do so for the long foreseeable future.

And that is great.

I'm about to depart on the biggest trip/adventure/race/ride/undertaking I've ever attempted, the Stagecoach 400 - a mountain bike race from Idyllwild, CA to San Diego & back, through the desert, mountains, coast, etc. I am and have been busy racing the Mukluk & preparing for this race the past two months, so I'll do a winter re-cap when I get back in May. It'll be a good launch into this summer's extensive ride plans. I'll also unleash the best news I've gotten in a long time, as it's still in the works.

It has a little something to do with 'Adventure by Bike.'

For now, it's time to go far on the Fargo. More soon, in 400 miles.

Fatbiking With A Vagabond

I had the pleasure of going fatbiking with Glenn Charles for the day on the Stampede Trail, north of Denali National Park, Alaska.
Glenn rode his fatbike up from Anchorage and was literally stopped cold in his tracks by a 40 below cold snap when he got to Denali.
Before returning south, I drove down to spend a beautiful day fatbiking with a man who truly is living an incredible life outdoors.
Enjoy the photos.

Rode to the North Pole & back today...


54 miles R/T: 3 hrs there, 2 hrs back. On return trip, I averaged 13.5 mph & 16.8 mph in the first 11.5 mi.
First ever fatbike ride over 50 miles with gears - all others were singlespeed.
Good day, riding at a rare for Fairbanks 20-25 above zero with lots of daylight.
