+TheLegoFool&Missus Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 Hello? What's happening with the race? There hasn't been an update in 2.5 months. You've had my TB for 4 months... Any chance the race will be starting any time soon? If not then I'd prefer you to place it in a cache soon instead of participating in the race. Want to get my little LandCruiser on the road! I am so sorry about the delay, I have had some serious family issues come up, and I haven't had the chance to get thngs rolling. I have a couple of spots chosen to start the race, and I will keep everyone posted as soon as I can. Again, so very sorry! Marc Just an update... We have a few more racers entered, and only two spots to choose from now. I will be submitting the cache site information within the week... if all goes well... and hopefully it should be posted next week. Good luck to all the racers! Marc Quote Link to comment

+joranda Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 To bad I don't live in Canada, sounds like a great idea. To bad one of my TB's made it up to Canada on its way to Alaska and ended up in a cachers hands for over a year now never to be heard from again. Quote Link to comment

Just because it's a Canadian race, doesn't mean you have to be Canadian. it just means it's through Canada. If you have a NEW TB, you can send to me, and I will drop it in the cache... we accept late starters. After all, it's all in good fun Quote Link to comment

+hurleyanne Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 My racer, Cruiser of the Land, is missing. It traveled a whole 32 km, and hasn't had any logs for the last 2 months. It is not in the cache it was last logged into either. Poop. Quote Link to comment
+TheLegoFool&Missus Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) I AM SO SORRY! I know I haven't updated in quite some time, and I am sure you racers are pretty upset with me. I would like to extend my apologies to everyone. I also would like to invite everyone who has participated to email me @ legojo@gmail.com with your mailing address, so I can start sending out some of the SWAG we have received for the race. I will update the standings soon, and announce the 2008 winner as soon as I am physically fit. Again, so sorry for the delay! Marc Edited January 28, 2009 by Queens Borrowers Quote Link to comment
