Bill Beers and Doug Heredos take on Alcan 5000

The 2008 Alcan 5000 Winter Rally runs from February 17th to February 27th.

With generous support from our employers (in the form of paychecks every two weeks), and with wild support from our spouses, Bill Beers and Doug Heredos will be there.

The rally starts in Kirkland, Washington and travels through Canada and Alaska North of the Arctic circle.

It's cold up there.

Bill and Doug have secured a 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 Turbo Diesel from Bill's father-in-law, Frank. This truck will serve as an ideal platform to plow through snow, tow out our competitors, keep us warm, and show off our real sponsors wares.

The truck will be generously outfitted with lighting, wipers, and protective films from PIAA.

Keep an eye on this blog for more information about the preparation of the truck with all the cold weather gear that is needed to survive in -40 degree weather, as well as photos and video of trip.
