I ride in Alaska like conditions, as a last resort, I find they work pretty well in addition to all the other gear of course.

We came back from Fl (82 degrees) to 5 foot drifts in the driveway and 4 degrees with 70mph winds and windchills of 40 below...sweeeeet! Got back in the saddle today - and it felt good...as it always does.<BR/>I wanted you to know that we here in the little rockies haven't forgotten about supporting your race effort. People scattered like the wind and are back Monday....we'll be sending something next week.<BR/>Stay warm...stay healthy - here's to a great year!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-90509085811905591772008-01-04T15:02:00.000-07:002008-01-04T15:02:00.000-07:00You're awesome!

Any suggestions for pogies, goggles, lube that won't freeze my brakes? <BR/><BR/>Good luck with the knee...

By day two this race is more mental than physical.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your comments during RAAM. I'll see you in February.<BR/>Jeffjoatleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11508652657375187092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-8137837885598035902008-01-04T10:13:00.000-07:002008-01-04T10:13:00.000-07:00You are awesome!!

I found your blog from an article in Velo News.<BR/><BR/>I'm such a pansy for driving 5 hrs south just to find warm/dry trails!<BR/><BR/>Your an inspiration - I'll be riding in the snow for the rest of the winter. Can't wait to follow how you do this year.<BR/><BR/>I used to go out for long winter adventures in the mountains here on my skis but never considered taking my bike. Having a 2 yr old has also slowed that down a bit.<BR/><BR/>Keep the rubber side down and the wind at your back!Eric Moodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13528599120639301770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-18656237293855869872008-01-04T07:48:00.000-07:002008-01-04T07:48:00.000-07:00Jill - you're quite the inspiration for me.

I've bounced around from hobby to hobby and recently decided that my life-long love of mountain biking would be my only love - other hobbies be damned! <BR/><BR/>That decision has led me and my brother into planning a little bikepacking trip this summer in the Rockies. And maybe down the road, hopefully a longer trip on the Colorado Trail or the Great Divide Trail. Bikepacking rocks!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the inspiration!<BR/><BR/>mmmm.... giardia-laced peanut butter....Andrew Hahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00782352308753156437noreply@blogger.com
