Well it looks like everyone is close to the finish. One rider outside Chicago, hopefully they make it back by noon... Gonna be close

After 11 they lose points, after noon and it's a DNF

I really enjoy following the IBR. I know it was different people putting it together this year and they were running short on time with less staffing so the job they did was outstanding. I really did like the way the daily write ups were done before. Lots of pictures of the riders bikes and small videos. Lots of information about the daily rides and some personal experiences. that is always cool to read and follow. I also wished when they listed the riders names and finishing order that they would list the type of bike they were riding. I find that really interesting. I did see one list this year with that but could not find it again. I liked having the bonus locations listed with the instructions on how to pick it up after that leg was completed. Not that I would ever do an iron butt rally but when I get out exploring on my own I do go to some of the bonuses that interest me. All in all though the write ups were good and once again I really enjoyed following it. Congratulations to the people in the rally for getting out and completing it or attempting to complete it and a big congratulations to the organizers for taking it over and keeping it going.

Yes it would be nice to have information indicating what bike each rider choose to ride in the rally.

I agree. Even a list of everyone entered, their info from the rally & stats would be nice.

There was one rider, Whit Meza that we follow online. We haven't heard anything about her rally experience. Haven't heard mention of her at all so we're curious and hope she's well.
