I love my Nitro 2 sled! I have put at least 2000 miles on it so far, the last was the 2017 1000-Iditarod Race. I ran it from start to finish I loved the durability and performance! With the optional expandable sled bag nose, I was able large loads for long runs. Thanks Prairie Bilt!

We own one of the first Nitro 2 sleds built – bought in 2008 when I needed a sled for the Iditarod at the last minute. This sled has completed two Iditarods, numerous Beargrease Marathongs, Hudson Bay Quests, and many thousands of training miles over the past 12 yrs and is still on the trail! Everyone who tries is says “Wow, thats a comoforable sled!”
Thank You Prairie Bilt!!!

This sled was a great choice for Iditarod and the Quest – excellent handling and storage! I love the competition seat as well but recently ordered a cooler seat attachment (only to keep the cooler out of my sled bag.) Thank you, Prairiebilt!
