2025 IBR

The 2025 Iron Butt Rally started just over 12 hours ago and once again Chris and Stella are over there giving it another nudge.

This year they have entered with one of their mates from the states (how poetic) as Team FAFO.  I'm not sure what the difference is if entering as a team - probably all need to finish to get finishers status.  Maybe I should read the rules.

Anyone, here's a video of the ride start.  See if you can find the mighty Connie:

Spot them?  Oh well, here they are - at about the 1:34 mark.  Yes, I stole a screen grab.

The ride started in Iowa and you can see how much everyone has spread out in just 12 hours on this Spotwalla page.  They really do cover the ground I'd say every state except Hawaii will get a visit by someone.  Canda probably isn't off limits either.

If you're interested there is plenty of stuff on the net and daily write-ups are available on the IBA website.

Go team FAFO!
