The video shows an ebike (electric assisted bicycle) ride from the south end of the Anchorage Campbell Creek Trail (Dimond & Victor) to the north end (New Seward Highway).  The ride is a week after the heavy rainfall resulted in severe flooding throughout the city and south central part of Alaska.  Three sections of the trail were still under water, the deepest about 1 1/2 feet.  I got my feet soaked but don't think I did any damage to the bike.  There were also 4 trees still across the trail.  I missed a turn where there was a trail detour due to construction at Dowling Road.  A nice lady pointed me in the right direction.  My bicycle is about 15 years old with a Golden Motors Magic Pie 2 48 volt 1000 watt rear hub motor.  It is powered by a 48 volt lithium ion battery.  I used my GoPro 2 HD Hero camera with a chest mount to record the ride.

The link below shows a video of the highlights (water & tree crossings) of the ride.
