Freezin' my @$$ off! North Pole Bike Extreme 2007
Ready to race at the North Pole
|
By yourmtb on 4/6/2007  Bobby Bostic is at the North Pole this weekend to run a marathon. But he's also going to compete against 13 other riders in the first-ever mountain bike race at the pole. When the running marathon is done, riders will cover 26.2 miles (same distance as the foot runners) in a loop course. Here's Bobby in Longyearbyen, Norway, trying out the Crescent mountain bike that he'll be using for the race. It features tires with little steel spikes. Bobby is running the North Pole Marathon because he was the winner of a contest by YourRunning.com (sister site of YourMTB.com) to give away an entry to the event. |
North Pole-worthy mountain bike

By yourmtb on 4/6/2007  Bobby Bostic will be riding this Crescent mountain bike at the North Pole on April 7, competing against 13 other riders in what apparently is the first mountain bike race held at the pole. In this shot Bobby is in Longyearbyen, Norway, prior to catching his flight to the pole, alongside Crescent's owner. |
