Ya, that's me and my training partner - we are both competing in the 1000 mile Iditarod Trail Invitational in Alaska in February. We use the Elfin Lakes trail up past Red Heather for "push" training as a part of our race will involving pushing as well as riding. Without gear on the bike its super fast and fun to ride down, with all of our heavy gear its fine from the hut down.
