Let's Get Ready to MUSH! - Bet

Howdy-ho everybody, its your roving Border Collie reporter, Bet, reporting from the North Wapiti Border Collie Broadcasting Center (BCBC): AKA the cloud!

Yes, its that time again!  Time for the Musher and Richard to pack up and head out to another race, and this time its the Torch River Run in scenic (been there, done that) Saskatchewan. 

Yep, just when you think its time to kick back, relax, eat some waffles, its time for another race!

I'm sure all of you will be disappointed that I won't be going along on this trip (I'll pause here while you all weep a little), but never fear!  I will be able to keep track of the mushers right here from my cushy reporter nerve center!

This trip, which will begin at midnight tonight will consist of only the Musher and Richard, and of course, the curly tails. 

The Musher will be taking on the challenging 10-dog race, which is 200 miles and starts tomorrow.

Richard will be taking on the equally challenging 6-dog race, which is 80 miles and starts on Friday.  Both races will finish on Saturday.  Since I don't have opposable thumbs and can't drive a stick, I won't be able to move the truck where it needs to be, therefore I will be staying here for this trip.

Don't fret though, we have ways of keeping track of events and I also have to post some tidbits from the last race, so keep checking back for updates and don't forget to cheer on the Musher and Richard on the North Wapiti Facebook page (we're so socially networked you know).

And now the moment you've been waiting for, the line up for the race!!!!
