65 Year-Old Sioux Falls Guy Bikes to Alaska!

Here’s a man we’ve got to meet!

Age is just a number right? Sure… kind of like how the “2,998 miles” from Pierre, SD to North Pole, AK is just a number too!

Sioux Fallsian Gary Weitgrefe was itching for adventure and thought he’d make a dash for it once he could justify his on-time retirement. And dash he did, breaking through this original plan of 50-mile days, often putting in a hundred before bedding down for the night.

So now what? Now that you’ve gone to the top of the world on pedal power? What’s next? He’s going to write a book about it! We’re looking forward to that. As you can tell from his blog about the adventure, it’s sure to be a fun read.

Nice job, Gary!
