I've ridden that ...Ah, Resurrection Pass, nice pic. I've ridden that 40 miles(?) of single track no less than a dozen times. Hasn't changed a bit. That has to be one of, if not thee, quintessential cross country mountain bike courses in Alaska. Nay - America! Curious, did you ride it north to south (Hope to Cooper Landing) or south-north?<BR/><BR/>We just missed you on the Kenai. My wife and I rode from Anchorage to Seward a couple weeks ago. Sunny with a north tailwind all the way to Summit Lake!<BR/><BR/>Oh yeah, and if you would, get a DNA sample from Geoff and send it to me. I'll sequence it here at the lab. Appearance notwithstanding, I'm not certain he's human. 6+ hours - Wow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-40322501040731699422007-08-06T06:34:00.000-06:002007-08-06T06:34:00.000-06:00Jill, there's nothing worse than heading downhill ...Jill, there's nothing worse than heading downhill in wet and nasty conditions and realizing you've got no brakes. At least you came out relatively unscathed. The last time I did that I came out of it with two knees the size of softballs!<BR/><BR/>I'll go give Geoff congrats on his blog!Malliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13186936683465162035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-87176755573812108422007-08-05T23:47:00.000-06:002007-08-05T23:47:00.000-06:00Sorry to hear your ride ended up sucking.

Eleven years ago I was backpacking there during October when I watched a flight of geese fly up the valley in orderly V formation only to return ten minutes later in a very un-orderly fashion, every goose for itself. being from Arizona it took a minute to sink in that the geese were trying to get away from something... something BIG. I had left my gear at the trail junction and was hiking up the valley sans any foul weather gear. I turned and began jogging back; in a few minutes I could hear the storm behind me and began to run. I got to my gear and the safety of the alpine hut just as a furious storm exploded all around me. The next morning there was a foot of snow on the trail. It was my first introduction to the fact that there are no casual stolls in Alaska.William Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01261764610803448186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-25980258500744700052007-08-05T21:05:00.000-06:002007-08-05T21:05:00.000-06:00Damn Geoff!Jill is all apart of learning to be fle...Damn Geoff!<BR/><BR/>Jill is all apart of learning to be flexible with you plans =)<BR/><BR/>Not sure i'd be barrowing a bike for a 50 mile ride =)<BR/><BR/>Nice pictures! buy geoff a six pack for me! =)FixieDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685170404057881390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-47549529502713524052007-08-05T20:34:00.000-06:002007-08-05T20:34:00.000-06:00That top photograph is absolutely magnificent.As i...That top photograph is absolutely magnificent.<BR/><BR/>As is Geoff, for his extraordinary running, and as are you, for all your gifts.mgrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12620303547611684820noreply@blogger.com
