I've been hooked. I found your link via subarctic mama via Jill the musher. Anyway, My name is Kate and I just moved to Juneau from Minnesota. I'm here serving in AmeriCorps for SAGA. After this I'm moving to Fairbanks. Currently, I live out by Amalga Harbor with 30 other folks. I'd love to meet you and have a meal sometime if you'd be up for it. <BR/><BR/>email me or call me. katehallet@gmail.com 907.789.7078<BR/><BR/>www.katesalaskanadventure.blogspot.com<BR/><BR/>My blog is nowhere near yours!<BR/><BR/>I am a huge fan.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>KateBanalistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12884113444015568569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-51009408081417897972008-04-19T10:56:00.000-06:002008-04-19T10:56:00.000-06:00Cut that board in half..split it baby, yeah!Cut that board in half..split it baby, yeah!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-58338833979809339942008-04-19T06:39:00.000-06:002008-04-19T06:39:00.000-06:00The idea of taking shoes and board on a bike is pu...The idea of taking shoes and board on a bike is pure magic. If I lived closer to the mountains (than 80miles) I would have done it by now. A few years back I took a long ride in winter with my long wooden (50s)iceaxe, an empty external frame backpack and my gear in my panniers. The bike i depended on had no suspension was steel and of 1990 Specialized vintage. I was to catch up with friends (who had headed into the Southern Alps of NZ a few days earlier) after I finished mid year exams. I got off my bike at 5am after riding since 10pm (the exam finished at 5pm) and put a plastic sheet over my bike, shoes and emptied panniers. Then, hoisted my weighty old frame pack to proceed on the hike for 5hrs and walla, a hut and a 1 hr sleep before avalanche tranceiver games with mates in the sun and snow at 1300metres. I began the trip at sea level.<BR/>A couple of days later after playing around on glaciers, I had to rendevous at 7pm in a southern city for a 21st party. Walking at 6am biking by 9:15 for 70km and hitchhiked 350km to get some nice clothes on and party.<BR/>The life is good! Hiking with a board is fine. Your local views are stunning!<BR/>Oh and P.S. My commuting acts as great interval training for hilly races...but i live in a dry climate and my office is in the open outdoor air..so no worries about sweat. Been indoors in the past but gave it away. I now commute on the Rockhopper I used in the above adventure (2003)...and am treating it to an upgrade from cantilever to V-Brakes today! woohoo! :)<BR/>Seeing as you share so well..<BR/>My pics can be seen at http://www.flickr.com/photos/9597591@N08/Shoeless Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06539649649441701801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-18744206232379552982008-04-19T00:21:00.000-06:002008-04-19T00:21:00.000-06:00These are some of my favorite pictures of yours.
