The Sadlers Alaska Challenge para-cycle race got under way in Ester, outside Fairbanks, Monday morning. The wheelchair and hand-cycle event is back on the Fairbanks to Anchorage route it ran for 24 years. The race switched to a bi-annual format in 2007, and in 2009, the 25th anniversary event hit new communities, but as KUAC’s Dan Bross reports, the Alaska Challenge has come home.
