    It's conceivable. His bike finished already, he could ride it out there to Jerome. Can one bike cross the finish line twice? Epic!!!

    Jeez, Crane made it within 5 minutes to spare. Can anybody there say if Crane and Jewell finished together, or when Jewell finished? What's the word on our Montana/Wyoming brigade from last night, when did they get in?

    Every checkpoint has a two hour penalty window. I presume the penalty is 1% of points for that leg only. As for the finish, not sure if it's 1% for the final leg, or 1% for the entire rally. Would be consistent if it's 1% for just the final leg.

    I hope US 285 is a good road at night. TX rider looks like he could be taking it all the way up to 40. Yeesh, I sure would prefer Interstate for an overnight ride.

    NE Oklahoma hasn't moved much. I hope he hasn't thrown it in.

    That rider out in NE Oklahoma is gonna be late. And my two Bay Area buddies who aren't on public SPOT are right on the edge. Hoping for safe journeys for all!!

    I've been doing this rally thing for 12 years. We don't need spectators, we need riders. I've seen my favorite events go from 30-40 riders to 10-20 riders. You can't put on a rally with 10 riders, it's just not feasible. There are many reasons why rallies wither and it's not worth going into...

    Because the rally is for the riders, not the spectators. The public SPOT is a bone they throw to us, but if it starts getting out of hand with more stalker crashes or other distractions, you can kiss it goodbye.

    Just got off the phone with Hammy. He's aimed for Niobrara for tonight, then in the direction of Devils Tower tomorrow. If anybody wants to intercept him, go for it!

    They have done it in the past, though for some reason did not do it for 2013. They posted everyone's scorecards after 2009 and 2011. Here's Peter Behm from 11. https://www.ironbutt.com/IBR/2011/html/43-1.html

    I wish I had Craig Brooks' private SPOT.

    Pretty sure that's Dennis Bitner's colorful leg.

    I love it when you guys argue about **** that's already clearly answered in the rally documentation. It doesn't matter what fricking state the Statue of Liberty is in. If Tom Austin says it is in Mississippi, it is.

    You guys who helped Josh Mountain are totally awesome. Why would anybody ride anything other than an FJR in the Show, when they have this kind of pit crew?
