RACE ON - ICY WATERS LTD!!

Weather's good! cooling down nicely at -16'C  at 9.44pm, and falling (-11'C 30 mins ago!) and the trail has been polished! Harris Cox of the KSA groomed the trail twice this morning, and Jon's pallet polished it 8-9pm this evening.

It's hard, and firm, yet with a strange hard styrofoam-like consistency: tread on it and you sink 1/2" in, stand on tip toes and sink 1-2" in, and it sounds...hollow. Asha and Puck (mere lightweight Rotties at 92 and 99lbs pounded along, punching 1" into packed trail - so Jon re-polished it....Heavy Dogs, jeez is Rene Lapierre coming tomorrow with his Heavy Brigade (Malamutes!)?  - make sure you draw a bib number earlier than his!.

Jon braved the Snow Sea at the Pyramids and there is a defined skidoo track across it - "don't leave the path" (quote from American Werewolf in London - and who knows what seethes under all that snow........"ggerabbed my skidoo and ppppulled it under"). So you're safe as long as you stay on the path.

All good, see you all tomorrow - and remember it's a POTLUCK so bring some FOOD, and DRINK!!!! and be praperd to hang out for while as we have TWO awards presentations!!!
