Go Weird or Go Home!


Yes, it's the month for swimming but don't get stuck in a one-track workout rut and forget why we live here. Because it's weird. If you want ordinary then there are 48 other states to choose from (I'm giving Hawaii some props here). There a plenty of states just filled with interstates, strip-malls, and boredom. Take your pick.



But I'll get to my point. This has been possibly the best week of winter biking we've see for a loooong time. The trails are packed; the air is still; and there is an inch of frost over everything. Moose graze in schoolyards while bikes ride silently by. Giant islands of ice flow through the inlet. You can't buy these experiences anywhere else. If you don't get outside soon then you will miss the entire point of living here.
