For damn sure... we need to get him a hat and patches, what a stand up guy. We should invite him to the rally, don't know where he lives, but ****, ain't nothin' compared to what he's doing.

This Bodhi fella, from Lebanon, Ohio has just been burnning up the road. I don't know him, but I've been following him on the Spot tracker, and I feel exhausted myself almost like I was doing the riding. lol
He should be in Homer in a couple hours now.

Sounds like Bubba is now a member of the Florida Crew.
Did MB carry some stickers and patches with him? Bubba probably has one on him or his bike by now.

Hope we have a update soon as if Masterblaster is back riding with Bubba, but here is the latest from Bubba's son on FB; Dad is moving right along. He is having to take it slow it looks like but I've heard that the road where he is at now which is just Northwest of Burwash Landing , Yukon is pretty bad. Its estimated that Dad will be at the finish line in about 20 hours. I wonder if he can taste it yet?

Hey Hoka Hey!
Looks like Bodhi's at the finish line as of 8-9pm EDT. That was some hard ridin'.
==== Sporties from Sarasota, Charlie! ======David R. Gerard Ok folks, I just rode back from the finish...riders 9 and 10 had just come in......on sporsters! They were worn out but still smiling after ....9025 miles!!!!.
Not one bit of negative remarks when asked about the routes. They said they were some of the very last riders to leave FLa. It took them a couple days to learn how to avoid mistakes on the route."Slow Down" I think was the solution. They remarked they entered a "challenge" not a race. They seemed like a couple very level headed riders to me. They made all their ck pts and rode smart sounds like to me. Wish I coulda joined them for a beer at Lands End but....not on the MC, ( I promised my sweetie). Anyway, the official who checked them in is a bit stressed at all the scuttle butt floatin around but she was optimistic it will be sorted out, she was focused on her task till the last rider comes in. Also a local good samaritan couple were good enough to put the finish line sign back up and paint over the graffiti that was done to the trailer serving as signage at the finish line. ... Good job riders 9 and 10, I admired your attitude along with your endurance abilities, you took the high road as well as the correct roads. ... Cheers! ps, they were from Sarasota Fla. ..19 hours ago =============

And, it looks like Spot-Mark just arrived on the hard-tail chopper. Holy cow.
Hope MB is with Bubba. Crossing from Y.T. into AK!!!! GO MB!!!!!!
My hat's off to these riders.
