The first
race in the six race Championship Series will be Brandon
Park on the 12/13th December. Mushers and teams will begin training in early
September in preparation for the premier Sleddog races in the UK.
Teams from
all over the country will race against each other from December through to March,
in 6 races. Three in England and three in Scotland.
What about
the snow ? We'll despite our preference for snow races the UK climate doesn't
often oblidge! So we swap traditional sleds for "rigs". These are
3 wheeled buggies, normally built from bike parts, to form a traingle frame,
with foot plates at the rear, and believe me you still get up to speeds of 25mph,
and when you're behind 6 dogs who can each pull, 15-20 times their own body
weight, it's one hell of a ride!
