April 22 - 28 … The Snow is almost gone!

Spring sure is trying to make an appearance despite the fluctuating weather patterns. At this time of year, if the winds come from the north, the temperature tends to drop 10 degrees whereas if the winds come from south, the temperature goes up 10 degrees. I believe we went back and forth 3 times this week.
But the snow is mostly gone now, finally, and the spring/summer ride season is approaching quickly as riding outside, every day, is now the norm. Mornings are still rather brisk with temperatures starting in the 30’s but early afternoon the weather has warmed enough to start getting in the miles.
We are also looking forward to the annual spring ride in Denali National Park as the park service opens the ride to cyclists a few weeks before the bus season begins. We will have to see how that one goes as the Alaska Range still has quite a bit of snow but a lot can happen before May 15.
