Found something in the NRK (Norwegian broadcasting Corp.) archives you should all see. It's about Bjørnar Andersen in the Iditarod. I'm sorry I haven't been able to subtitle it, but it should be interesting nevertheless.

Enjoy!

...or rather - his preperations for the Iditarod.

Lost it laughing when I read this:

MM: What happened with Bjonar in the Iditarod last year?
RS: Bjonar was in love. That is what happened

I have neither seen the tv-program nor the article. Thanks both!
Me and the cat have had a lazy afternoon on the coach, watching running dogs
Even saw the apetizer on Iditarod.com - did ypu check it out?
(You may want to close your eyes at this point, dilli, don't know if your dial-up is up to it
But - here's for everyone - big Jon Little-stories: http://iditarodblogs.com/news/
Read about Sigrid Ekran's wrong turn in Copper Basin.
He sure is a great writer!

NRK link isn't 56k dial up friendly ... and Tilstede, you're right 
... neither is II's 2008 promo, which I've tried to download three times .. connection kept dropping about 1/2 way thru the download. Very frustrating. Undaunted , I'll try to download it again very late tonight.

I had the same problem Dilli, but what I managed to see was awesome! Gonna try to watch all on a high speed connection another time.
Suppose everyone is getting tired of us poor dial-up people complaining but it(dial-up) is becoming more and more of a handicap with all the video clips/links out there plus all the pictures everybody wants us to post! Posting a pic takes me all afternoon to download etc. so it takes dedication!

I'm sorry dilli, I didn't think about those on dial-up when I posted the link. It is absolutely not 56k d-u friendly. Maybe you could watch the programme at a friends place or something? The first half of the programme is Bjørnar preparing for the Iditarod, we see him train and race the Femunden 600 - the 2nd half is from Alaska and has some stunning footage. The programme is 35 mins long and was at the time broadcasted as part of NRK's regular nature series.

Dilli and Di, do you have a problem with photos in this forum?
Should some of the threads be kept as photo-free zones?
Or - photos only in tagged threads?

Hi Tilstede
Well the pics do slow things down but I don't want to make it an issue for everyone else.
That was very kind of you to suggest that(pic free zone) though! I figure I can deal with it(hopefully you'll let me complain once in a while
), just breeds more patience on my part and maybe someday we can afford to get a faster connection out here in the woods!
