Fairbanks Snow Travelers

It was a cold start to a great day. As I drove to Chena Pump Landing to meet up with everyone for the ride I really didn’t expect to find anyone else. Alvin was already there, ready and waiting as I parked my rig others started to show up. So why you ask didn’t I expect anyone else, well my truck sa...

Great ride, a little cool at 22 or 26 below (depending on who's truck temp gage you went by). Nine of us hardy souls ventured out and made it to the Mondo for a great lunch. Warmed up to 5 below by time we left to head back to town around 2:00 PM. Have to say it was warmer on the river. About half w...

Called the Mondo, Nick is dong OK and will be back in town Friday.

They are open Saturday at Noon, said we'd have around 20 folks and plan to be there about 1:00 PM.

The Sweetheart run is set for Sat the 10th this year. It's usually on Sunday, but we have a calendar for 2018.

We'll be meeting at Chena Pump Landing at 9:00 AM to head to the Mondo for lunch.

Temps are suppose to be above Zero

See ya there.

Post this here as well as sending out emails, so sorry of you get more than one of these requests. Hope everyone is staying warm these days. The river is looking good from Nenana to the Flood Control, a little rough above the Chena, but decent shape. I’m looking for help to run the river track and p...

Anyone willing to step up, I'll be out of town this weekend, so can't do it.

If no leader, then we'll have to cancel.

Yeah, but -27.9 below at Poker Flats.

The workshop consist of one day in class room presentation and one day of out door hands on with the participants. Jan 20th—The class cover...

Good ride, 60 Mile Loop, will post GPS coords and pictures later. Had 12 riders all day and didn't lose any, always a good thing. It was bit more technical than anticipate with some side hilling and rough wind blown trails. But the temps were in the above zero most of the day, a few cold spots in th...

OK, I'm set to go Sat. Who all plans to join me

May need an alternate ride leader, any takers ?

I might have to go to Delta for a couple days and may not make it back in time to lead Saturdays ride, so would appreciate an alternate leader just in case.

Thanks

I plan to be at Hilltop Cafe at 9:00 AM for breakfast and we'll decide during breakfast where to ride.

The temps are suppose to be in the above zero for the day, so we may ride from Hilltop or go down the road to 28 or 57 mile Elliott.
