QBP sent out this media release (PDF) earlier this week about Jay Petervary, the endurance cyclist from Fitzgerald’s Bicycles (Summit co-host) who broke the Tour Divide individual time-trial record last year.

Jay is sponsored by Salsa Cycles, one of the Summit’s two Presenting Sponsors.

I asked Jay for a couple of photos to go along with this blog post and he sent me these two of him with his wife, Tracey Petervary. His descriptions of the photos:
Both of these pics are from our trip to Nome in 2011 and both of these places are seriously in the middle of nowhere!
Left: In the ghost town of Iditarod where the trail literally ended and we waited several days for the trail breakers to come thru.
Right: In the ghost town of Ophir, where we met some Iditarod check-point folks celebrating “Mexican Night” with enchiladas and margaritas.
Summit and Festival attendees will see a great deal of Jay and Tracey this weekend, including their Friday night slideshow.
