Wallpaper Wednesday - Beluga Lake - Homer Alaska - This photo is taken at Beluga Lake in Homer Alaska! Beluga Lake is used as a float plane hub during the summer, mostly for sightseeing and bear viewing, but once it freezes over, it becomes a derby car ice race track and ice skating heaven...especially when the ice is glossy and perfect after a good windy storm!

A Chilled Out Snowy Evening at Eigiau Cottage - I’ve now stayed at remote mountain Eigiau Cottage more than thirty times, yet it still excites me every visit. There’s something about being off-grid that feels quietly adventurous. I had booked the stay months earlier, hoping for snow, and my wish was granted when a small flurry began drifting across the hills of Snowdonia (Eryri) in North Wales.

Do you swap fat-bike wheelsets for different conditions? From light summer wheels to studded winter setups, some fat-bikers keep multiple wheelsets ready. Do you? If so, what’s your strategy? What conditions make you swap (snow, ice, sand, pavement, mixed trail)?

Wallpaper Wednesday - David's Bearclaw Bruno - ’ve wanted a Ti frame for a long time, so Bearclaw’s release of their new Bruno fat bike frame was perfect timing. After looking at all the options, I really like the look of the internal routing on the Bearclaw and the modern geometry really works well on trails I ride like Redhead and  Chequamegon.
