Dog Sled Racing; The timed competition of teams of sled dogs that pull a sled with the dog driver or musher standing on the runners. I have been participating in dog sled races since the age of four. Over the years it has become a family tradition to spend every winter packed in the truck for hours on end to compete in these races. I could have a great dog race, or a horrible one, but it all starts with organizing my sled and dogs. Repeating the process of preparing my team has become a set routine

Racing, Sport or History There is no better feeling than hearing that engine kick over for the first time after all the hard work put in to make it run. Hearing the pistons pump up and down, the spark plugs igniting the gas pushing out exhaust, while the engine tears through the air; feeling the engine vibrate your body.

This quote escalates from a simple request for another lap on the track to a request

After the “Salary Negotiation” on the first day with a desirable outcome, we thought that we would perform better because we seemed to be more familiar with the negotiation process. The feeling of confidence then came into my mind, which made me believe that we would achieve a very favorable deal today. However, compared to other groups’ outcomes, we realized that it was not. Let us recall what had happened today and then

The fourteen hour drive was a killer. I still can not believe that I was in the car for twenty-eight hours! My mom, dad, brother, and my brother’s girlfriend got up at two A.M. and left at three A.M. I read for an hour and then slept for two hours. We then watch Star Wars the Force Awakens, a two hour movie. We had a stop at a gas station and got some food. I read for another hour, then I slept the rest of the way there. We got there and saw the hotel and we were awestruck. The hotel was fifteen

What is the event? Was the same question I had in mind once I heard we were supposed to write an essay on it. I had no idea it was an event that evolved bikes and family or that it was an amazing event in which people expressed themselves through their bikes. Having the opportunity to volunteer I got to witness many people get together and ride bikes either with friends or children and in some cases I would see people with dogs too. It was an event created to promote a no car day and promote other
