You bet! Some cool stuff down here but ya gotta know where to look. There’s a small campground down in this spot that the landowner built in 1965. It’s pretty cool. Some old sled trails that have some cabins south east of town in a valley that’s pretty fun with fallen trees to ride over etc. Real workout.

Lyndon Poskitt from the UK is doing the Dakar Rally this year. This will be his second one. He'll post a video everyday during the race. Going as a solo rider, all the repairs during the race on his bike as to be done by him without any help. All spare parts and tools are in a box that another team normally carries to the next bivouac every day but in his case, he as his camera crew. I've been following Lyndon blog/videos for some time and Lyndon is a great rider with awesome mechanical skills. Lyndon is a Mechanical Engineer and he used to work for BAS Aerospace but decided to quit his job and sell everything to travel around the world and race. http://dakar.wikia.com/wiki/Lyndon_Poskitt https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/62 ... -lyndon-poFirst 3 videos from his Dakar blog:

Lyndon is doing great this year. Found this video from his 2017 Dakar Rally where he wasn’t doing so great due to lack of sleep. Still, he finished second.
