Iditarod Trail Invitational Gear List- THE BIKE GEAR
I recently completed the Iditarod Trail Invitational (350 miles of self-supported riding through Alaska's harsh winter). One of my core values is "Risk = Reward." This was a massive risk and ultimately one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. With thorough, calculated preparation, (and some help from my special recipe of my Alaskan Schweddy PB Balls) I came out as the first female finisher.
The gear I used was a massive attribution to my success. I am writing this to share with you the gear that gave me the confidence and performance to roll through the finish after 4 days and nights of grueling cycling and mental depletion.
This wheel set is no joke. Featuring a 28-hole count, this 100% unidirectional carbon fiber wheel is optimized to create a structure that achieves the desired impact resistance, stiffness, and compliance.

I love that you credit calculated preparation, and even your Alaskan Schweddy PB Balls, for finishing as the first female. After long winter rides, I found MyNightfall bedtime really useful for building a calming evening routine, and its night routine ideas help me wind down before sleep.
