Earlier this year I had the pleasure of linking up with another bikepack racer, Jonathan Mingle Speed of Greenville, SC frequents Pisgah National Forest for training miles. Since our adventure at the Marji Gesick we have gotten a few training rides in together and I have started working with Jonathan remotely through our online training portal to help him build up his strength, stability and mobility. For his last race of the year Jonathan had signed up for CFITT(Cross Florida Time Trial) riding from Florida's east coast to the Gulf.
