The Living History Farms bus is ready to rock - and the theme is Stewardesses & Pilots - Drunk on a Plane!




There is still room if you want to get on board, in fact, the race itself still has openings and you can register at https://secure.getmeregistered.com/get_information.php?event_id=11507  If you register and want to ride with R.E.D. send me an email at byron.teamred@gmail.com

For anyone not familiar with the Living History Farms Off Road Race... it's 7 miles held on Nov 22nd, with multiple creek crossings - you can run the whole thing, or follow me as I know all the short cuts!   We'll leave Byron at 4am... arrive in Urbandale IA approx 7:30am.. the race starts at 9am.  Our bus will have us back in Byron at 4pm.  It's a 12 hour tour... and a fun one!
