three days a week rain or not. it's rough here in the great northwest but if you wanna try to get good and stay good you have to put in the seat time! wish i was able to have the weather that o-town riders have thats for sure

sunrise is at like 4am sets at like 2 or 3am so you get about 21-22 hours of daylight! at midnight mid summer the sun is at 12: in the sky!! you can loose track of time real fast!!!! you think it's like 6pm and it 1am....... thats why they call Alaska "land of the midnight sun"

your thinking of Nome AK ......it's cold as hell all year there... in Anchorage we get, in the winter 20{f} and in the summer 80+{f} Nome in the winter -40{f} summer maybe +40{f} but they are 1500 mikes north of Anchorage....hell in Fairbanks Ak it's HOT!! you will see 100+{f} in the summer and your 3000 miles closer to the sun then say in CA so 100{f} feels like 130{f}
