30 & 31 August 2025 - "Fosbender Fenderbender" race weekend - Sandy Point, Invercargill

 


Final race weekend of the 2025 season! A slightly different format for this race, with two heats on the  Saturday, meaning we ran in morning and again in the evening. Luca and Lola were entered in the  two dog scooter class and they did great.  The weather was atrocious - heavy rain, hail and wind - and the trails were a greasy mud slide in places (I had a spill in the afternoon run - at least the mud made for a soft landing!).  Even so, it was a great weekend and a nice end to the season. Let's see what next winter brings!

In the end, she used a different pair of dogs of her entry for that challenge, but I got some nice pictures.
