Updates from my Alaskan Correspondent

My friend is in Alaska for the summer to be a mountain bike guide for tourists coming off cruise ships. I've been getting sporadic updates from her about getting to Alaska and settling in there. The most recent had this snippet in it.

There is a slow bike race here for 4th of July- it's 2 blocks long. Last person across the line without putting a foot down wins. I'm gonna enter and probably get creamed.

I love it. I so want to take her on in the slow bike race. She'd probably cream me.
