You are an absolute breath of fresh air! The world could use less materialism and more people connecting with nature in such a personal and visceral way. Stay the course - whether you realize it or not you are well on your way to showing others a compelling alternative to living a life of unchecked consumerism.<BR/><BR/>All the best,<BR/><BR/>Pat Rodden<BR/>Whidbey Island, WA<BR/>http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/beyondtheyukonpat rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03781887379565219926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-80314124403602726642007-11-19T21:18:00.000-07:002007-11-19T21:18:00.000-07:00You are a BCW (burly cycling woman).

I've been reading your past articles as well as looking forward each day to see your latest entries. Though I am an avid cyclist (both road and off-road), and I'm happy to follow your cycling progress, it's your writing, and your evolving connection to Alaska that really keeps me coming back to see how you're doing. While others might dream of warmer climes, I dream of Alaska, and hope to be living somewhere along the SE/SC coast in the next few years.<BR/><BR/>In addition to my cycling, for the past ten years, I've been enjoying the wonders of the "bicycle of the sea" (sea kayak). You're in a perfect place to discover and enjoy this as well, so I encourage you to enhance your human powered journey with a bit of paddling. Just beware, it can be difficult dividing one's time between two equally compelling obsessions!<BR/><BR/>In any event, I love your blog, and will continue to follow your progress; wherever it takes you. Enjoy your Iditarod...and beyond!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05224691252858689732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-51254967517582525492007-11-19T13:34:00.000-07:002007-11-19T13:34:00.000-07:00Sounds like an awesome ride, and those are some ve...Sounds like an awesome ride, and those are some very cool pics.
