After spending 53 days this past spring traveling to the North Pole on foot, I’d say polar explorer Eric Larsen has earned a little down time. In this video, he takes advantage of some time off to go mountain biking in Colorado near Crested Butte, a spectacular place to hit the trail if there ever was one. The ride looks like a fun one, with enough speed to provide some adrenaline, without becoming overly technical on the descent. Just what you need some days when all you want to do is get on your bike and go. Lovely.
