Jill on the move



The first few SPOT points have started trickling in, indicating the start of the 2009 Iditarod Trail Invitational for Jill!

In the above map you can see the Knik Bar where the race starts, and that she is rolling out over the frozen lake.

Unfortunately it seems Geoff's SPOT page is having some issues. I'm not sure what's up, but I'll try to see if I can get some points out of it.

Hey Scott,
Thanks for the race support. I'm sure it won't be long before you're toeing the line up there!

Great job Scott, we appreciate you...

one question though...Why on FireEagle blogloc map does it show Jill"s way point on land and not on the frozen water?

I have some good pictures of the start on my blog from 2 hours ago. Check it out if you are bored. Go Jill!!!!!

Thanks Scott, it's gonna be fun to watch her progress.

It's amazing that those fat tires can go right across the open water like it shows in the map photo...

Thanks guys. I'm looking forward to following Jill's race too.

The aerial photo was taken during summer. Right now the lake is frozen and therefore rideable!

Thanks Scott. Will be following closely.

Oh, no! Turn around, Jill! You're going the wrong way! She's going to score for the other team...
