Open North American 2009! Downtown Fbks

Postby Frozen Chosen » Fri Mar 20, 2009 12:01 pm

Folks, here we go again, on the premier sprint dog race in North America/Alaska! Once the likes of the Huslia Hustler (George Attla) and "Doc" Roland Lombard (from Wayland, Mass.) fought each year for the title of "Top Dog" in sprint racing (from the late 50s all the way to early 80s).

These two, among many well knowns like Roxy Wright (Ramy Brooks mom), Gareth Wright, Fast Eddy Streeper (of the Streeper gang of Canadian mushing), and Egil Ellis (Swiss i believe) sprinted to the winner's circle right here in downtown Fairbanks, Ak!

Take a break from the Idit early this aft. and the next two days (1pm Ak time) to check in and listen to live stream:
