I gave it a try with my gravelmonster (29x2.35 tires) and no way except to ride the edges of the road where there's at least some amount of grass. I really want this to work, but I fear it might be a one-and-done type thing. 5MPH? That's it? Wish I had one to borrow or rent and give it a try before buying.
If it's flat terrain, then borrow or rent a fat bike or buy a cheapie on craigslist or some Dolomite (whatever the brand name) or bikes direct with 8 speeds and take a whack at it.
