In other news, my buddy Pete Basinger won the Alaskan Ultrasport again this year, making the 350 mile ride through incredibly tough conditions in 3 days 9 hours and 45 minutes.

Think about that for a minute. How many of us could ride a road bike 350 miles on pavement in that time? Here's a photo and description of what he triumphed over to win this year.

Alaska Trail Invitational, or the Ultrasport 350

It looks like Lance Mackey is about to make it 4 in a row! He should be coming across the finish line in Nome some time between 3PM and 5PM AST. You can watch it live here:

Nope, Sorlie and Bakken stayed home this year. There was nobody for the Sons of Norway to wave flags to as they left the starting line.

Hans Gatt came from Austria, and Martin Buser is from Switzerland so that will almost do. :tu:

Yeah, Kathy and Bill are absolute maniacs in the winter biking community here. A greater couple you'll never find.
