Sunday evening 1000 miles to Nome free to view

Post by JohnClimber »

Hi All,

I'm talking to the film maker who made the film 1000 miles to Nome from last years Iditarod Invitational
https://www.iditarodtrailinvitational.com/iti-1000

Preview

Quote from Summitoppler who's seen the film in full
"It gives a great insight into the hardship and toughness of the route and competitors of the race"

It's looking like I'll be able to "host" it on a Facebook page "Social Distance Cycling Club" which I'm admin on (sorry if you're not on FB, but it's the only way)
It's looking like it's due to be aired at 7Pm GMT on this coming Sunday evening.

Please sign up to the page, invite your mates, grab a beer or two or three and it looks like one hell of a "race"

Some of you on here are already sharing your photos, but for those who don't know, the FB site where it is and where I'd like you to join to view the film and also share your social distancing ride photos is here

Bit formal that John, let me put it another way... You're probably doing nothing else on Sunday evening or whatever day it is, so pour yerself a beer, turn the heating on, put yer coat on and watch a few bikes doing something daft in a cold place!

It's all confirmed for 7pm GMT on this Sunday the 19th.

Just a couple of links to make and ensure the film makers gets the start time correct.

A little bump up for this one as a reminder.
3 hours to go.
I just hope my American friends have calculated the
7pm time difference correctly and allowed for British Summer Time too.
Tune in to see my efforts fail

Once I figured out how I was meant to watch it (with a link) it was ace. I didn't know film makers where commenting throughout but I really enjoyed it.

It really helped with my stress level for sure. Thanks for the link.

I enjoyed what I saw, but about 35 mins in the audio stopped.
Still, inspirational stuff
