Good night y’all! It’s 3:19am in Austin, but thanks to time change it’s 12:19am here in Tok, Alaska. I can finally turn my data on and use my phone beyond wifi… Yay America . I’m dead beat tired but wanted to send a quick note out before I call it a night (finally) bc it was […]

I’m currently laying on my sleeping pad in a multi purpose room at a church in Haines Junction Yukon. Oh ya, with 74 others doing the same crowded around. We look so funny, like a mix between a bunch of kindergarteners at nap time and a refugee camp.Today was the first day riding together. I […]

Hello everyone!Yesterday was so much fun getting to reunite with the other two routes. Seeing familiar faces and sharing huge hugs gave me such a warming feeling. We’ve been in such a bubble with just our own routes, that we were all a little nervous to meet up and be back in a huge group […]

Hey everyone, I’m so happy to send this note today. After a pretty tough 60 mile ride from Meziadin lake on highway 37, we were surprised with a different host than we thought! We thought we were camping, but actually we are camping at bell lodge. A fancy lodge area complete with a lounge, restaurant, […]

All of my stuff was a little bit wet when I woke up this morning but luckily it was really warm in the tent because of all the people in it (one of the tents had to disperse it’s members into other tents because of critical structural failure). I was moving a little slow this […]

Today I was on SAG duty with Neha, Mark, Kitty, and Mukthi (I was actually supposed to SAG yesterday but I have to thank Kristina for switching with me!). I had to break the trend and actually woke up earlier than everyone else in order to pack and cook breakfast. Unfortunately it rained all morning […]

Today was the big day! We crossed into Alaska! Of course we couldn’t contain our excitement this morning and woke up an hour late (but seriously, how are we getting slower?). Luckily we still had time to be the last tent packed up as usual. Still, so much happened today and I’m excited to tell […]

I set my alarm 30 minutes early but that still didn’t prevent everyone in my tent from managing to sleep in 30 minutes. Breakfast was oatmeal as usual and then Josh and I enjoyed a view of the lake before ride dedications. It was something like I’ve never seen before, a huge glassy lake with […]

I set my alarm thirty minutes early so I ended up waking up right on time (strategic, I know). I had decided to sleep downstairs in order to guard the front door (it couldn’t be locked and I thought any intruder would find me intimidating. I also used my super cool Boy Scout knots to […]

For some reason it was really hard to wake up this morning (the Rockies wake up call was slightly louder than we are used to. We also might have a tent pact to wake up 30 minutes after when we are supposed to). Sure enough, our tent was the last to be packed up and […]
