My Alaska Life
It’s common to see snowmachines and dog sledders pass by the cabin on the frozen Susitna River, less common to see fat bikers but it does happen. I’m always amazed when I see them out there peddling along. It’s hard enough sometimes driving a snowmachine. Alaskans love endurance sports and fat biking takes a lot of endurance. It also takes some toughness to travel out in the Alaskan wilderness, especially in the wintertime. These bikers don’t appear to be carrying many extra clothes or much survival gear and since the weather out in the Alaska wilderness can be unpredictable and brutal, I am dumfounded to see them out there riding sometimes. This was a pretty nice day for a ride though. They seem to be enjoying themselves.
