The latest Intel is that Dazell Gorge and Tetina River isn't passable. So we are planning on using the Iron Dog route through Hellsgate to get to Rohn Roadhouse this year. Iditarod goes through Rainy Pass, and with no established route this year most of us will ride to Hellsgate and attempt to dip, dodge and dive overflow and holes in the ice.
The red route is Hellsgate. The purple route is Rainy Pass which we usually use along with Iditarod. The purple track is why Iditarod is NOT starting in Willow this year. |
Lately I've been helping my dad with his house sale. I got a great final week of training in that culminated in a Third Place at the Little Su 50k behind last years ITI winner Tim Berntson and local hotshot Jason Lamoreaux. Jason pipped Tim in a sprint finish. I'm happy for Jason, he finishes second and third a lot!
I've got to give a big shout out to the folks at Speedway Cycles. I was "that guy" who brought bikes by the shop at the last minute. They came through and really got us "back on the road." Thanks a lot.
That's about all I have for now. I've gotta rest.
