Evan Simula racing fat bike climbing hill

Evan Simula

I live in Marquette with my wife Grace and two kids, Calvin and Maya. I manage a bike and Nordic ski shop called Sportsrack. Outside of riding and racing, I play music in a few local bands.

FAVORITE, OR MOST NOTABLE, WINTER FAT BIKE ACCOMPLISHMENT OR EXPERIENCE: 

Most memorable would have to be the Rovaniemi 150k in the Finland up in the Arctic Circle. My Wife and I spent about a month in January there only on bikes to prepare/train for the race. Got to really explore a whole new landscape and culture.

Favorite Gear

Gotta go with the Wrathchild 26 x 4.6" although I will be really bummed when my Redwing Wölvhammers finally wear out...
