Galena Checkpoint #1

This is a forum for general discussion of dogsled racing, with a special focus on Alaska, and is open to all. It is expected that this area will see the most activity during the months leading up to, and during the annual Iditarod sled dog race. Pictures from races can be posted here. Hosting is provided by the Bering Strait School District (BSSD), and the area is open all year. Care to be one of our volunteer moderators? Contact us!

It looks like the stats are updated now. But it sure was fun to see that time and speed posted for a short while!

Di you are a treasure!

As I posted that, I wondered if our "over the ponds" members would "get it".

Sometimes it is hard for us "Merican's" to trust our idiom/idiocy to come thru in translation.

I so enjoy our international bunch, I should apologise for word games and references that are not universal.

Hugs!

Hi Tils! :D
Scooby Doo was an american cartoon that was wildly popular in the 70's. The main character, Scooby Doo, a dog, prefaced all his words with an "R"..as in
his best bud Shaggy=Rhaggy
Velma=Relma
and so on...hope that makes sense now! :)
