NO FAIR II

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!

ummmmm, personally I'd rather get the free Team BSSD SBT vids than pay for Insider nothingness ;) :shock: :D

mith, I paid my 20 to get the free dvd from 07, figureing II as the bonus ;) I hardly watched any of the II because I'm over at bssd most of the time. And when I do go watch II their vids are at most 1 minute long and you gave reason earlier why so few air shots this year.
I'm more disappointed than ever and there was a mix up and they charged me for two years so I'm on til 2010 :evil:

they did have good shots of Lance and dogs and interview, which most likely will be shortened to 1 maybe 2 minutes, if they stay true to form. I'll let you know if it's different (what does a 'fat chance' smilie look like?).

WHOOOO HOOOOO IDITABUDS and BSSD RULE

The only thing I'd miss--the ONE and ONLY thing I'd miss--on II is the live start and restart. I sure wish there was some way around that. Hmm. Is there anyone in that diabolical Breaker family that could help in this regard. Code Breaker, maybe?

My experience:

"Renew your membership today - and get a free DVD"

I renewed instantly and started to wait for my DVD. Nothing.

Next time I checked in, there were added some text:
"DVD - for shipment in USA only."

Yes, for me too. But the DVDs must have more than whats on Insider, righ?? I'm not really comfortable talking down the II though, couse it adds great thrill to have these videos posted each day. But I'm allowed to say I was a bit dissapointed that not more from the finish line is shot live, right?
