We won the Lotto! No, we traveled to outer Mongolia!

Natural hues of an amazing sky at sunset in Olgii, Mongolia

Dry bones. Can you name this animal?

My friend rented a mountain bike and we set out for adventure.

Our third amigo, he is new to MTB adventures

North of Olgii, we rode up in the hills past the sheep heads for beers.

Storms were brewing as they always do in Mongolia.

Looking back to Olgii, Bayan-Olgii Province.

Cycle and Motorcycle touring in Mongolia is epic.

There is a sky out there that will take you by surprise.

Clouds, they tell stories of Genghis Khan and the Mongols

Day trips with backpacks are relaxing, easy, and rewarding too.

Gravity helps us float back into Olgii to stay the Gers.

Speed and gravity, the endless pursuit of motion.

Backpacking for a day out in western Mongolia.

Ride on!  Inspiration is in the journey ahead of you.

Support for this expedition came from LYNSKEY USA, Makers of fine titanium frames.

Dream the big rides, face all the fears, live all the dreams.

People use their bikes to commute for a number of reasons. In some cities, traffic is so congested that it is faster to commute by cycle. Another reason for commuting by bike in the winter is that it can be easier and less expensive to park a bike in a downtown area than a car. Other winter cyclists may use their commute as a way of getting exercise, or as a way to be environmentally friendly. Winter commuting in areas that get snow and ice poses several challenges. In the winter, snow is plowed to the side of the road, which often covers the shoulder of the road and makes the available road surface more narrow. As a result, cars and bicycles have less space to share on the road. As well, winter cyclists have to travel in a variety of conditions which change greatly between a morning and evening commute, from freezing rain to gusting icy winds. As a result, a winter biker may need to bring a variety of clothing in order to be prepared, such as additional outerwear and goggles. Depending on factors including the climate, the length of the commute, and the plowing schedule, some winter bikers wait for the streets to be plowed before setting out. Other winter bikers bike through snowdrifts, which takes a great deal of energy, as a way of getting a vigorous workout.
