Ha, sounds like our intrepid leader is a little scattered, misplacing his camera and messing around with the flag and all!

Time to point out that the ninjette is currently in 58th place.
Not bad, considering, and he must be brilliant with the routing because he has way less miles than most, even than a lot of people with less points than him. |

If that ain't a story and a half... Darn good read and Alex in the top half, or would it be almost third of the field if not for two places. Hella exciting

Watched some Rally riders along Highway 50 today, wow, there is no mistaking those riders are in it for the long haul. Too bad yesterday's report didn't have an update on points position.

Not sure which rider is Alex. Look for the green pre-gen towards the end.
Also, I was surprised at the amount of older bikes that started.

Standings after Leg 2
Looks like Alex has slid 25 spots to #57.
Place/Rider name/Bike/Leg 2 miles/ Total miles/Leg 2 points/Total points/Position change 57 Alex Ciurczak BMW 2805 5576 17513 34227 -25 He's still having fun, but I'm looking forward to when he's home again. Seems like so much work to have to go from Sacramentao (less than 3 hr from home) to Pittsburgh, PA, only to turn around to come home again in a few days... he's going East to go West. Safe riding, Alex! |

He's also mentioned in the daily report from the 7th recarding carrying the Smurf card "that will mitigate problems."

I wonder if anyone was able to help Kurt yesterday.
Here's a photo from the iron butt rally log of Alex's brake engineer/ savior guy, Roger Sinclair. For posterity. Hey I chuckled.

The Smurf Card
Alex told me about the "Smurf Card". He said there was some guy there who was very spiritual (??). The Iron Butt ride report gave some details about how the guy is "different". Anyway, before the rally started, he gave Alex a card and told him the card would help him with his Karma and get him through troubled spots. Alex put the card in his wallet... and I guess it did help!

Damn I just noticed the ninjette guy is ahead of Alex. Somebody is going to have to give him crap for that. You know, someone who doesn't mind being a total armchair quarterback and all.

I think its pretty awesome he's still in it seeing how so many have already quit. I am sure if he does another one the lessons learned in this rally will help out.
if the ninjette finishes above him the crap will overwealming on here!!! |

When he wrecked the first BMW he had set up for the rally I told him he should just ride his 300 for the rally. Maybe I was right.

Based on the Day 11 report... Looks like Kurt on the green ninjette will not be a finisher. Wonder what happened.

Well... We do have his email now. Maybe a couple days after the rally and a chance for the poor guy to get home, we can have a rep email and ask, letting him know our Ninjette community was rooting for him.

Report says Alex rolled in 36 minutes after 8 this morning. They haven't posted the final tally yet (that I can see.)

I'm back to the hotel safe and sound. Hit my goal for this third leg, and scored enough points to be considered a finisher for the event (which gets you a 3-digit IBA #). I'm tired. More details to come over the next few days...

Congratulations!! Welcome back to the land of the Internet, Alex!
