Yeah, looks funny, but that puts MB about 3 or 4 hours behind Chris by my wild *** calculations. Lame Deer to Big Timber is only 186 miles and that is using interstate. Don't know the actual route. Chris shows Columbus. Still, MB has made time. Go MB Go!!!

 

wishing masterblaster the best of luck. behind you 100%

 

ok a little behind here went backa few pages. i just want to clarify that we think that bubba and jerry are riding together. so we are following bubbas spot?

 

Thats right Bulldog, They are together. Goooo Masterblaster!!!!

 

Where are they going on 90? That actually looks out of the way. That Hoka hey Cowboy is a Monster. He is well into Canada and moving right along. Does anybody have a track link to anybody ahead of him? Jerry should be in Canada later on today it seems. Really surprised to see the on the big road.....must be a reason. We need an update from the home front Kimbo. Goooo Masterblaster!

 

is there any way to figure tell miles between the spots on SPOT, other than using mapquest, google, or some other map program?? Anybody have a clue, and a link, to the leader?

 

For those catching up, here's what I have...

No no miles on spot, sucks. Seems like it would be easy enough to add to their program. I think this guy is in the lead as far as the Spot trackers I have been checking up on. http://www.spotadventures.com/user/p...?user_id=57963 Its a shame Hoka Hey organizers won't be a little more forthcoming with updates. Its kind of hard to believe that national media has not shown an interest in this event. I guess they are having trouble finding anything bad to report so they are just ignoring it. Plenty of negativity surrounding this event, that's for sure. Goooo Masterblaster!

 

I think I have Jack in the lead with Spot-Cowboy near (both in Canada)...
Spot-Mark just leaving the USA into Canada now...
Spot-Sportster-Chris (reset his Spot) - Left HD in Montana at 10:00 am: off to the next check point Fairbanks AK, almost into Canada now...
Spot-Bubba(Spotter) and Jerry ROCKIN' ON' in MT with a few hours yet to the Canadian Border...
Spot-Jim just leaving Utah...
Spot-Charlie is 3days old in Arizona...

BTW, Chris's blog says he's not trying to win, but creating a documentary about the trip, and showing off the XR1200X and what it can do. Either way, the dude's a stud.

Ride On Challengers! GO MB!!!

Yeah. The H-D's that are checkpoints, should have a leaderboard showing who the 1,2, 3... coins were handed to as they checked in, and what time they checked in.
Doesn't seem that hard.

Lot's of info on this link. Check the conversations from "Others".

The screwy thing about this whole thing, is that they called it a challenge vs a race on purpose they say, because it was setup to be a challenge to succeed and complete. Yet, there's a big price at the end, that make's it more of a race, than just a challenge. My 2cents.
