12 Mile Twister
1 Jon Lucas, Snowpigs, volunteered, 4 race total 30 pts
2 Kyla Boivin, Doggone Racing, volunteered, 3 race total 26 pts
3 Lee Kirkpatrick, Drag n Fly, volunteered, 2 race total 20 pts
4 Tony Radford, Drag n Fly, volunteered, 2 race total 14 pts
5 Aileena Ruekenbach, Huskyteers (YET TO VOLUNTEER), 3 race total 10 pts
6 Darrel Sheepway, Smokin' Paws, volunteered, 3 race total 8 pts
Therefore to retain the trophy Lee Kirkpatrick has to win the final race - shouldn't be too difficult, she held off Snowpigs' 2 dog skijor team by 13 seconds with a 4 dog sled team and she'll be running 5 next race - unless the "spoilers" (very fast teams that don't compete often enough to be in the league, but nevertheless take points) such as Dave "Tagish Tornado" Johnson and Brian "Marshmallow" MacDougall force Lee to turd place (as Brian politely puts it). Even if Lee wins, Snowpigs can still win out with a second or third - although given last race's performance they'll still be pushing for first. Should Kyla Boivin ever return from the fountains of youth (beer) in Fairbanks she only needs to work with Drag n Fly to finish 4th and keep Snowpigs out of the top three to take the Trophy and Title. Both teams have faster race times than Snowpigs, so if points are equal, Snowpigs loses. Either way, these are the top three teams this season.
Is that complicated enough? come and see the action on March 22nd and all will become clear!
Aileena Ruekenbach had better have a word with her Father - if he isn't out there volunteering on the 12 mile next race, then "Floating A" is out of the League and Smokin' Paws drops into 5th and a bonus $50 from Yukon Brewing.
Kids League
Jeff Diment is way out in front and uncatchable - Congratulation Jeff! he volunteered out on the 12 mile and will be this season's Kid's League Champion and $125 richer. Better share that with your Mum, Jeff, for all the gas etc, or we'll allot you an arbitary Doug-A-G penalty for next season :) honest.
The fight for second place and $100 from Yukon Brewing is on between Erin Spicer (who's Dad Darrel Otto has volunteered) with 18 points and Larissa Ruekenbach (who's Dad we are certain will be volunteering) with 14 points. Still 3rd brings in a tidy $75.
Pet Dog League
Asha the Rottie has selected her four Firsts for 40 points and wins the League and $125! Keno the House Husky needs to start and finish the season finale race to pick up second and a tidy $100 from Yukon Brewing.
Stay tuned for more info, updates, trail conditions, and apprently some hulking male Weatherman - the ladies have been complaining!
