New York and Kentucky look like they are at hotels. Maybe they turned their trackers off? The Harrisburg, PA, rider has about 180 miles to go. Looks like that rider will be time barred as well....unless the feed we see is innacurate.

I believe Leg 3 bonus lists will be handed out at the 4:00 a.m. riders' meeting on 25 June, forcing them to get at least some rest after being scored for Leg 2.

Sure hope it's the former for AZ bike. Amarillo and Kearney are certainly the ones to watch now. Getting exciting!!

And don't forget the redneck L.A.......that would be Lower Alabama! ;-)

HOMER is near Burwash Landing, 3745 miles out. That translates to an avg. mph of approx. 65 mph to make it home.....not looking too hopeful to me. GO, HOMER, GO! Ride safely.

Thanks for the post, Iggy.....out of likes for today. Sure hope the riders keep their eyes on the road and not on the fireball.

Why this crazy stuff is so much fun to WATCH.....just glad it's not me.....but what fun to watch. Wishing all riders well. Ride safely.

I have no idea (nor do I need to know) the identity of the rider near Homer, AK, this morning, but I can say with certainty I'm gonna be following him/her for the rest of the rally. GO, HOMER, GO. Ride safely!

Woo hoo!! It's that time again! Looking forward to this bi-annual madness! Hoping to be at the start with some of my grandkids, waving the orange Tennessee flags for our 3rd IBR. Thanks in advance, Ignacio, for all the info and updates. Here's hoping and praying for the safety of all riders...

Just left the parking lot. All riders in. Last rider checked in at about 2050. Except, of course, for those riders who have phoned in that they will not make it by 2200. Sleep tight, riders!

Ditto and amen! Thanks big time to Doug C........you da man!!!

We're only 4.5 hours out this morning, and I'm jittery.........all I have to do is get some breakfast in 3 kids and drive a few hours. Can't imagine what the outlier ralliers are feeling, Kitty! We hope to raise spirits at the checkpoint, though. That is our mission, and we gladly accept it...

Wow! All these pics! All this info! Such fun for the next 11 days for us onlookers. Thanks to everyone who contributes to this insanity called IBR 2017. From a truly appreciative fan. See y'all in Allen!

Headed to Allen, TX, on Tuesday for the checkpoints there......most bang for the buck for me and my grandkids. Be on the lookout for the orange and white welcoming flags, riders!!

Check in time for me. Getting excited about IBR 2017 and the best place for coverage........right here! Gonna be at both Allen, TX, checkpoints with my grand kids. Some may remember them at Kingsport in 2015. They are 11, 10 and 6 now and have been giddy about this trip for two years now...
