XPLR the Westfjords Way

How do you race into the sunset in a place where the sun never sets? Enter the Westfjords Way Challenge, a 580 mile (933 km), stage race across Iceland. This week, Chas takes on this epic challenge aboard his Zipp 101 XPLR wheels and takes us through all the peaks and valleys (mentally and physically) that come with racing ultra-distance. The self-supported stage race has participants camping at the end of each long day in the saddle while offering countless hot springs and waterfalls along the way. Do you think you can make it across Iceland?

Awesome footage and commentary Chas! I'm surprised about the lack of wind noise on the bike, what did you use as a mic? I'm joining the 2023 race, super psyched and freaked out! :D The first thing I'm curious about is the mid-stage hot pots, isn't it a hassle to undress, dry up completely and redress or is it simpler than it sounds?
