If anyone can do it Helen Skelton can. She is a tough nut. She done the Marathon des Sables and kayaked the Amazon. This is one big challenge she's taken on. Good luck to her.

I just cant get over those wheels!! Tubeless, yes, but light weight? I don't know! Doing seven or eight miles per hour seams fair... and well earned. Great post.
