Jill Martindale : June 2014

http://jillmartindale.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

Monday, June 2, 2014. Breaking the Beargrease in! Last winter I discovered the unmatched joy of riding a fat bike. I had raced Iceman for funsies on the shop demo and for me that was the final straw; I HAD to get one! When this past spring hit, I was faced with a difficult decision: keep the Mukluk. or re-home it and upgrade to the Salsa Beargrease. It really was a win-win situation! Found this note tucked away in my handlebars / bike shop humor. Hopping on a fat bike let me get outdoors to enjoy the win...

Jill Martindale : October 2015

http://jillmartindale.blogspot.com/2015_10_01_archive.html

Wednesday, October 7, 2015. The NUE Series was a blast! Sitting here writing this, it’s hard to believe that it’s already October and that the summer is officially “over.” Done-zo. The leaves are rapidly changing, everything is pumpkin flavored, I’ve already broken out the wool base-layer on multiple occasions, and I basically watched both Dan and my Spearfish sigh with relief when I unloaded the van after coming home from the last NUE series. Race of the year: the Fool’s Gold 100. Endurance racing reall...

Jill Martindale : August 2014

http://jillmartindale.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html

Thursday, August 21, 2014. 12 Hours at Wausau. After the Lumberjack 100, I knew I wanted to work towards doing a 12 hour endurance race, so I signed up for the 12 hour solo race at the Wausau24. Wausau was a little over a month after the Lumberjack, and I figured I could use that month to train to prepare for it. Plus, my bike-racer-travel bff Danielle told me that Wausau was a blast, so I just had to check it out! SHE WAS TOTALLY RIGHT! Before getting caught in the rain. There was a charging station in ...

Wednesday, January 20, 2016. Brewery Vivant Farmhand Fat Bike Race. Holy Cow. HOLY. COW. I don’t even know where to start in my race report about the Brewery Vivant Farmhand Fat Bike Race. If this is any indication as to how the rest of the fat bike season is going to go… it’s going to be one super fun, super awesome, really great season that’ll wind up ending way too soon! I miss her. Boooo! Thanks for this pic, Jenny Scott! Anyways – the Farmhand race was race #2 in the Great Lakes Fat Bike Series.

Jill Martindale : My first Arrowhead 135

http://jillmartindale.blogspot.com/2016/03/arrowhead-135.html

Wednesday, March 2, 2016. My first Arrowhead 135. I started watching the Live Tracker. For the Iditarod Trail Invitational. At 2pm on Sunday and I am so excited for everyone finishing and participating. What a cool event! It entirely blows my mind that some folks are out there who have done other winter ultras this season. I cannot wait to hear their stories and to pick their brains once they've finishing the Iditarod! This is my third year participating in the Great Lakes Fat Bike Series. So happy to sh...
