no doubt this is epic, but why go through the hassle of flying with a mtb for less than 100mi ride?
Anyone need a packraft with only a few miles of UNE travel on it? :)
It definitely is very paddle focused. Should be epic and look forward to seeing what teams are up for the challenge!
I agree s/c. Rent a half-decent bike, and for insurance buy a new chain to have them put on, and you'd be fine. I've done it for AXS races in UT.
you could even bring your seat and grips for more insurance. and pedals obvi.
so, what bike shops are in anchorage?
Renting in Seward could be an option too, if the race check in starts there. Saddle and pedals def, grips...meh. I'm pretty flexible on that.
We rented bikes in Moab for a race. Their bikes are much beefier and heavier than we were used to, so ask plenty of questions and be specific when making requests.
120 plus days to go! Training hard!
Have they posted the teams who are racing?
TrishTash is entered. No-one else matters.
last I saw 17 teams were posted
