Curiak is someone whose biking is inextricably linked to water.
I know of him best as a snowbike expeditioneer, having likely made more trips (maybe a dozen?) from Anchorage to Nome on the Iditarod trail than anyone else without a snowmachine or dog team. He's also into riding chunk in the desert SW (water and deserts are linked by definition).
So now he has a packraft, the 2011 model, which is the dream boat come true. The big boat that can do it all: flatwater and whitewater, big loads and no loads.
I smell an epic adventure in the works.
That is, maybe Mike will come up for the other soft substrate fatbiking: big beaches and icy bays.

If you need an Englishman to join in just give me a shout! I'm looking for a two-month packraft expedition next spring / summer...
