City of Lake Loppet Videos

Below are a few videos I took while enjoying the 2010 City of Lakes Loppet.  Sadly, we didn’t actually make it to the cross-country skiing race on Sunday.  But we enjoyed a full day of activities on Saturday.

The Penn Ice Cycle Loppet is a big draw for us.  It is fun to watch cyclists trying to keep their bikes upright on ice. Race criterium style it was divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced men, followed by an all levels women’s race.  Videos are below in respective order.

Skijoring is fun to watch, partly because of the variety of dogs used.
