Before the howls, before the harnesses, before the snow-covered trails—there was the road.

Long before Snövind Malamutes became my passion and my pack grew to seven powerful dogs, my sense of freedom came from a machine: the Aprilia RST 1000 Futura. A sleek, growling beast on two wheels, it was more than just a bike—it was a mindset. Fast, agile, and built for long-distance rides, the Aprilia gave me my first taste of true independence and adventure.

It was my second motorbike—a birthday present to myself—and it marked a turning point. Weekends were devoted to the ride. I’d leave early in the morning, long before most people were awake, and wouldn’t return home until 9 or 10 at night. Hours melted into miles as I chased the horizon, weaving through twisting roads, open highways, and forgotten backroads. It wasn’t just about speed—it was about movement, exploration, and the quiet joy of being fully present in the moment.

That bike taught me what it meant to respect power. It taught me patience, maintenance, and the reward of commitment. All things I rely on today as I train, care for, and run with my Alaskan Malamutes.

While the roar of the engine has been traded for the rhythm of paws in snow, the core of who I am hasn’t changed. The love of the wild, the need to move, and the bond formed through shared adventure—that’s still the heartbeat of my life. Only now, I share it with a pack.

Life took me from two wheels to four paws, from roads to trails, from the solo ride to something far more wild and alive. And I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
