SleepMonsters and TrackMe360 SPOT New Opportunities

SleepMonsters and TrackMe360 are now working in partnership to maximise the benefits and potential of the new SPOT Satellite Messengers in tracking adventure racing.

After pioneering the first use of SPOT in an international race at the Baja Travesia last month, preparations are now underway for coverage of this months Florida Coast to Coast race and the Untamed New England race in June, with live tracking maps and instant leader-board updates.

Fellow AR fans &; racers,
I'm very upset today that our local ABC affiliate, KATU, chose not to air the final episode of the 2006 Primal Quest race - as was promoted nationally. I've sent them a nasty-gram via their website. Shane had encouraged us to thank the networks for airing this - I say let them know how disappointed you are that they didn't air it.

Since when is an ATHELETE in an Adventure Race now a contestant on a reality show? Maybe I'm being sensitive but that offends the hell out of me. To be compared to the the trash on tv.... That would be like comparing the Olympics with the Osbourns. !!

The Bend RAID race will air on NBC this Saturday (8/7) at 11:00 a.m.

I'm staying at a place with no TV for the weekend. If anyone can record this, I'd love to borrow the tape.
