Monday, Dec 24th Ride
The forecast claims it's suppose to warm up by Monday, so....
Let's meet at Chatanika Lodge at 10:00 AM, have breakfast and decide where to go from there.
I'll check the Cleary Summit and Poker Flat temp before I leave the house.

Hey Anne,
I was thinking if we left the lodge at 11:00 and went back to Cleary, maybe till about 5:00 or so.
You two coming along?

Re: Monday, Dec 24th Ride
This is "not" an official club ride, just a who wants to go get some miles on.
However, you should join up
I called Chatanika Lodge to let them know we'd be coming up with an unknown number of folks.
At 12:10 PM it was -2 below, now I can ride in those temps, better then the -36 below I have at the same time at my place.

Should be good riding up here today. I checked out the Fairbanks Creek Road beyond the unloading area and there weren't any vehicle tracks on it except snow machines.
