Keith completed the WYO-131 gravel race! 🚵 🏁

WooHoo! 🙌 Keith completed the 2026 WYO-131 gravel race. This race covered 131 miles (211 kilometers) of Wyoming backcountry terrain with nearly 11,000 feet (3,353 meters) of climbing. The race started and ended in the beautiful small town of Lander, WY.

Keith finished 28th out of ~50 131-mile racers, with a total elapsed time of 12 hours, 1 minute, and 34 seconds. Keith was very happy with his race result. 😄

We had an amazing trip to Lander, WY 🐴 🥾

We decided to make the trip to Lander, WY into a mini vacation by staying in town for a few extra days. While we were there, we drove through the scenic Sinks Canyon State Park, hiked to the Popo Agie Falls, visited a wild Mustang horse sanctuary, gambled at the local casino, and enjoyed the various amazing restaurants in town.

Celebrating Oktoberfest at Snowbird 🍻 🥨

After our trip to Lander, WY, we were eager to catch up with our friends. We met up with them at Snowbird to celebrate Oktoberfest! 🍻 This was the perfect way to enjoy the beautiful mountain views, delicious German food, and tasty German beers.

Upon arriving at Snowbird, we quickly made our way to the main food tent to eat a meal before the crowds arrived. This was a smart move as the lines remained long for the remainder of the day. We then walked around the various vendor tents, checking out what they had to offer.

Eventually, as if we hadn't already eaten enough, we decided to share an Uber Pretzel with our friends. This pretzel was massive!!! The photo does not do it justice. Five of us shared the pretzel, and there was still plenty to go around.

We spent the remainder of the afternoon sitting on the lawn, chit-chatting, and listening to the local bands play. It was such a relaxing day and a great way to catch up with everyone. 😄

Planning for a 2027 Alaskan cruise 🛳️ 🧊

We are so excited to be planning an Alaskan cruise with Keith's mom and dad!!! We have officially booked a cruise tour with Princess.com that includes a trip to Denali National Park paired with a cruise along the Alaskan coast. We booked through Costco Travel, which actually saved a ton of money.

We will have more to share about this trip in the coming months, so be sure to subscribe to our blog so that you don't miss out.

Keith updated his personal portfolio website 🧑‍💻🤓

Keith has been wanting to update his personal portfolio website, keithhuster.com, for quite some time now. He decided to use some of his free time this weekend to do just that. In order to expedite development, he enlisted the help of Anthropic's Fable 5.1 AI agent to aid in the design and implementation of the site.

The result is a beautiful, custom-themed website that perfectly aligns Keith's experience racing the 2025 Tour Divide with his professional engineering expertise. Check out his site and let us know what you think in the comments down below.👇 💬
