Spring is Here!

Springtime in Alaska is a beautiful thing! we've endured a long, cold, dark winter (think six-hours of daylight and daytime temps that hover around 10 degrees for three months and you'll start to get the idea) and have broken through to the reason most people enjoy living here!

Check this photo from earlier this week to get an idea of what I'm on about...

I've been logging between 5 and 8 hours each week on runs and snow bikes (primarily snowbiking) and look longingly towards the summer road and mountain bike season.  Our daylight is lasting into the early evening (sunset 8:19, civil twilight till 9:02) and daytime temps are a nice 38 degrees.  Wednesday's CRC Pint Ride featured one rider in his summer stretchy pants!
