Alpine Vet Race Day Saturday Jan 26th

First CHT of the New Year, and third of the series - Can Luc Tweddell hold onto his top League position, will Bill (Speed Mad) Stewart and Lee Kirkpatrick return to challenge young Usurper Crispin Studer, will Jon Lucas pack on the body armour and skijor with 4 dogs, and try not to slide under Rene's LaPierre's Heavy Brigade? - who knows, who cares? - but if you do, be there with 2-6 dogs for sleds, 2-4 for skis at Icy Waters at 9am (c'mon guys and gals, let's really try for 9am this time).

The Pet Dogs' $125 League prize is wide open, with Asha and Kodiak level with 10 points each, and 4 more outings this season.

The climb to the quarry road now has snow, and will be re-inserted into the course - creating some added Twisting. This time we'll station the photographer at the "Mt Mac road post" oh yes, that luverly post, with all the little nicks, cuts and grooves and about bush bow height.

Merry Training!

  1. Righteeooooo then Brotherr Jon....
    So you really haven't counted on the TAZ factor now have you????

    Well just look out, cuz there might be a new upstart in the "pet??" category that will just put a whole new meaning on SPEEED for you. You may think that the " Taz" has just been baby minding, but you might just be in for a surprise.... Just send us the cheque now OK???? Save us all the grief of driving there and embarassing you and Asha...or do you plan on running Puck in that race???? See you then....

  2. What a strange person Mr Fitzgerald is. Let me see, Taz was promised to show up for all the Hot Hounds Races this summer, and she showed at erm oh yes, one. So no, I don't really count the Taz factor, because the likelihood of her, and her owner showing up together, and racing, is oh, say 25% at best - but I like the competitive writing style, and stuff your request for a cheque, get out here in the snow and make a race of it, just put one of the twins in CanTire plastic sled and let 'er go! Can't start 'em too young, I say!
