Yep. And frostbite. And gangrene. And wolves. Sounds like fun. &lt;\\/figcaption&gt;&lt;\\/figure&gt;&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n&lt;em&gt;Courtesy of Salsa&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Salsa-sponsored rider Jay Petervary took the top spot on the podium at the 2013 Iditarod Trail Invitational (ITI) race in Alaska, setting a course record in the process.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Petervary finished the 350-mile self-supported race in two days, 19 hours, and 16 minutes, taking 10 hours off the previous record.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;\\u201cThe race definitely came down to sleep deprivation, which is something I\\u2019m both very familiar and comfortable with,\\u201d said Petervary. \\u201cI have dealt with the sleep monster so much and actually enjoy seeing where it will take me. Of course, there is always the safety balance to contend with as well.\\u201d&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Petervary rode a Beargrease in the event, Salsa\\u2019s fatbike racing model. \\u201cThe Beargrease was simply amazing,\\u201d said Petervary. \\u201cIt\\u2019s very stable and doesn\\u2019t need constant steering correction. I love that about the bike. It feels like my&lt;br \\/&gt;\\nsummer race bikes.\\u201d&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;figure id=\\\"attachment_58823\\\" style=\\\"width: 630px\\\" class=\\\"wp-caption alignnone\\\"&gt;&lt;img src=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/files\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile.jpg\\\" alt=\\\"\\\" title=\\\"petprofile\\\" width=\\\"630\\\" height=\\\"420\\\" class=\\\"size-full wp-image-58823\\\" srcset=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile.jpg 630w, http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile-190x126.jpg 190w, http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile-135x90.jpg 135w, http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile-100x67.jpg 100w, http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile-200x133.jpg 200w, http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile-150x100.jpg 150w, http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile-160x107.jpg 160w, http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile-320x213.jpg 320w, http:\\/\\/www.bikemag.com\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2013\\/03\\/petprofile-480x320.jpg 480w\\\" sizes=\\\"(max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;figcaption class=\\\"wp-caption-text\\\"&gt;Petervary all smiles after his heaping plate of pain and suffering. It takes all kinds.&lt;\\/figcaption&gt;&lt;\\/figure&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;A six-time veteran of the ITI, Petervary raced with the lightest load he ever carried in the event. \\u201cThe bike was 46 pounds loaded, including a thermos of water and my edible calories,\\u201d he said.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;The crew at Salsa was thrilled with Petervary\\u2019s success. \\u201cJay is a special breed of athlete that is capable of pushing himself farther than most of us can ever dream of,\\u201d said Mike Riemer, marketing manager at Salsa. \\u201cHe works very hard for these moments, so it was very fulfilling for us not just to see him win, but to see him win on the Beargrease.\\u201d&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Petervary\\u2019s victory marks the second big win for the Beargrease. Earlier this year, Todd McFadden of Duluth, Minnesota won the Arrowhead 135 on a Beargrease.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
