John Murphy and Joe Groshek are avid fat bikers and are dedicated to creating and maintaining fat bike trails in our area. Joe says fat biking is very different than mountain biking. For one, the tires are more than four inches wide, compared to less than three inches on mountain bikes. You can also bike year-round and can go anywhere on snow, sand or ice on a fat bike. You can climb anywhere with gears that shift easily and smooth pedaling. One big difference with a fat bike is its weight, which is considerably heavier than road bikes; 1 mile of fat biking is about the same as 15 miles of road biking. Fat bikes are also slower, but they give you plenty of time to enjoy the scenery. These two guys created an activity they call “fat bike safaris” as a way to educate riders in a group led by an experienced guide. Joe's favorite adventure is biking on Lake Superior ice but warns that you must know what you're doing since conditions can change rapidly on Lake Superior. John has fascinating stories about wolves and tracking them in the forest. Wolves often separate into smaller groups and when they return to their pack, they re-greet each other just like domestic dogs, wagging their tails and rolling on their backs. And if you are fearful about running into wolves, don't be. They are very cautious and will keep their distance from humans.

Ali Fuchs grew up in Omaha, Nebraska, where she was lucky enough to have a friend who regularly visited Crested Butte with family. Those early trips gave Ali an early appreciation of Crested Butte, and after college and a few years chasing a career in California, she came home to Crested Butte. Ali spent the next few years learning how to mountain bike while working in typical ski town jobs, like painting houses and working in restaurant kitchens. As the years passed, she dreamed of opening her own bike shop and eventually did- Big Al's Bicycle Heaven, now located on Elk Avenue in downtown Crested Butte. In the early days, she would barely be open during the winters, but today she stays open thanks to fat bikes. Fat bikes have caught on in the past few years, and today many visitors come to Crested Butte and spend a day trying them- or they come here specifically to fat bike, which was the case for many visitors during last week's Fat Bike World Championships. In this episode, Ali and I spoke at length about what it's like to fat bike, what kind of gear to use, and where fat biking is allowed these days. If you've always wondered why her shop is called "Big Al's", you'll have to wait until the end of the episode, however. I hope you enjoy this episode of the Crested Butte is Home podcast.

On Feb. 4, Ted King, Buck Miller, Ryan Atkins and Eric Batty plan to head out from Attawapiskat First Nation in Northern Ontario for Nunavut. They’ll aim their fat bikes into James Bay and ride to Akamiski Island, about 20 km from the mainland and part of the northern territory. From Akamiski, the four will go toward Moosonee and Moose Factory. The ultimate destination is Smooth Rock Falls, Ont., roughly 600 km south of their starting point. The trip is called the James Bay Descent. King discusses his preparation for the trip and his concerns, which include polar bears. Then expedition organizer Buck Miller talks about more of the trip’s details. (He’ll be riding with a 12-gauge shotgun, in case of bear trouble.) Miller is a former member of the Canadian national team. He also lived on James Bay for five years. He tells about the ride’s charitable component: fundraising for the Moosonee office of the Timmins Native Friendship Centre. For Full Send/No Send, Dan Walker brings up what is possibly his most outrageous topic for debate to date. Can he and Matthew Pioro get through this segment within the allotted five minutes? They haven’t done so for the past two episodes. Peter Glassford is back with Ask a Coach. He talks about the types of training he recommends for these cold, snowy days. Contributor Molly Hurford spent some time at the Rally UHC camp in early January. She’s sent back a few interviews from the team that is just chock full of Canadians.

On this episode of Bayfield County Wild, Nancy Christopher talks with co-host and Director of Bayfield County Tourism, Mary Motiff, about holiday shopping and where to go for unique gift ideas. Our special guest Sue Vojacek, owns a family-run business called Oulu Glass Gallery and is inviting everyone to the family’s Finnish enclave to watch the art of glass blowing and to sign up for classes over the holidays. Plus, get into the holiday spirit with festive events and get ready to ring in the New Year at the Top of Wisconsin. Holiday Shopping Circle Tour Mary takes us on a circle tour, starting in the northern part of county. Bayfield has plenty of orchards, like the Bayfield Apple Co., that are open year-round and offer delicious, home-made jams, jellies, mustards and ciders. The downtown streets are lined with decorative gift shops that include the Apostle Islands Bestsellers, Bayfield Wine and Spirits, Keeper of the Light, Joanne’s Scandinavian and the Brownstone Center and Sweet Sailing. In between shops, there are plenty to places to relax and refuel. Not too far down the road from Bayfield is Washburn with its delightful shops including: Chequamegon Books, Karlyn’s Gallery and Lake Superior Drifting Stone Jewelry. You’ll also find great stocking stuffers at Coco’s Bakery and Harbor House Sweets. If you time things right in Washburn, take in one of two holiday shows at Stage North – “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever” put on by the Groundlings and “Blue Canvas Christmas,” performed by the Big Top Blue Canvas Orchestra. Next, Mary says head west to Iron River and stop on the way at the Northern Great Lakes Visitors Center in Ashland on Dec. 1. They are having a homemade holiday bazaar featuring locally-made gifts for everyone on your list. In Iron River, don’t forget to visit Angie’s Bakery, Jim’s Meat Market and This Old Bunkhouse. You’ll want to time it right to grab a bite at the Delta Diner and then head over to Benoit to browse the tremendous selection of cheeses at Benoit Cheese. When you get to the southern part of the county, you’ll be in the Cable area, where Mary says places like My Villa, Circle North, Whispering Pines Gift and Gallery and Redbery Books make your shopping experience the exact opposite to shopping in a mall. Shopping in Bayfield County for the holidays is relaxing and beautiful, as all of the communities embrace the holidays with festive decorations. Oulu Glass Gallery If you’re looking for that special Christmas ornament, you might find it in the Northwoods of Wisconsin at the Oulu Glass Gallery, just north of Brule. Run by a family of artists, Jim Vojacek blows glass, his wife Sue Vojacek makes stained glass and their daughter, Tonja makes jewelry. Sue says they built their studio in 1972, which many say looks like a mushroom house. You’ll find just about anything you can make with glass there, including jewelry, ornaments, goblets and bowls. Sue says this time of year to mid-January, you can come to see her husband, Jim, blow glass during their holiday shows. Jim takes audience requests and creates beautiful blown glass items in minutes. The entire glass blowing process takes considerably longer. According to Sue, Jim loads the furnace with 50 to 200 lbs. of raw glass materials. Its takes about three days to get the furnace hot enough to melt the material, then Jim blows glass for 6 to 8 weeks. The blown glass is put in a second furnace, where it is reheated, and then placed in a lair to cool down. For $35, you can take a glass blowing class, but Sue suggests you check the website for availability at ouluglassgallery1.com or call 715-372-4160 to leave a message. Most of the time the family members are in the studio creating beautiful works of art. The studio is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the week and from Noon to 5 p.m. on Sundays. Mary says if you are heading there from Hwy. 2, look for the Oulu Rock, a giant, painted rock. It’s been there for more than 50 years. How it got there and who painted remains a secret. Sue knows, but she’s not saying a word.

Welcome to the Merchants of Dirt Podcast Episode #10, hosted by Reckoneer.com founder Kyle M. Bondo. This is your insider’s guide to practical recreational engineering where I teach you the art and science of building, promoting, and directing off-road races. In this episode, we’re going to talk about why you need to understand the reality of market forces, competition, and customers before you decide to base your whole racing business on another fad. Then we are going to test that what we’ve learned by looking at Snowshoeing and Fat Biking -- two of the latest off-road sports to enter the market -- and see if they have what it takes to be worth your time to promote, or are just more marketing spin.
