1168. Beauty below zero (4/5)
This is a game that cannot be played in New Zealand and in his hometown. Wang Bo used up two insulation buckets and then took a lot of photos and videos.
At 2:40, the activity could not continue, and people packed up and started to leave.
The little loli said disappointedly: "Is it over now?"
Tony smiled and said, "Because the temperature cannot reach it, the temperature is no longer so low now, so the hot water poured out just cools quickly, but it cannot form ice fog."
The little loli asked, "But the sun has not come out, why does the temperature rise?"
Tony said: "It's troublesome to explain it specifically. It has to be explained from the perspective of geology, thermodynamics and wind. In short, you can understand that this square can only be played from 2:00 to 2:30 in the morning because it is in a strange wind vent, plus the temperature and weather at this time, and it is not possible at other times."
The little loli nodded in a daze, and then she asked Wang Bo in a low voice: "Do you understand?"
Wang Bo said: "Of course, I am a college student, you definitely didn't understand."
"I understand, too." The little loli quickly defended.
Wang Bo said: "Then tell me, what's going on in terms of geology?"
The little loli was stunned, and then said quietly: "Why are you so serious? Is it good for you to find out what is the benefit of you? Go and take me back to the hotel, I'm sleepy."
Wang Bo said: "If you don't continue to study hard in school in the future, then you are still afraid that others will ask for the truth."
The little loli pouted and said, "I will study hard when I go back."
After playing for two days, he started to do serious business later. Wang Bo had to take a car to clean up the road and environment of the competition.
Tony asked, "Wang, are you sure you're here to ride the sled? To be honest, man, I don't think you're suitable for this one. You have to know that the whole journey is icy and snowy!"
Wang Bo shrugged helplessly and said, "There's no way, man, I may not be suitable to ride a sled, but I can perfectly control these dogs, and I can't find someone who is more suitable to ride these dogs."
The little loli raised her hand and said, "My brother-in-law, how do you think of me?"
It's no problem if you have a short distance. The little loli is really a master of sledding, but this is a long-distance competition, so it would be unreliable to let the little loli do it. If there is any accident on the way, Wang Bo can't afford it.
Besides, this is an international event and minors are not allowed to participate.
Patting Tony's shoulder, he said, "It's me, let's go and get familiar with the environment, believe me, I can do it, and wait to win the championship!"
Tony will compete as his coach.
This competition is called "the most magnificent event in life in the world" in the United States. Although there is no live broadcast throughout the TV, there are TV crews there every checkpoint passed by during the competition, and there will be live broadcasts across the United States at that time.
Wang Bo's team is the strangest, because this activity is not as wide as other sports. Everyone is in the same circle and knows each other.
He is a stranger, and everyone else chooses Alaskan sled dogs, not because of the competition regulations or paying tribute to the sled dogs of that year. In fact, this kind of dog is the most suitable for participating in this event.
Among all the white drivers and sled dogs, they are standard miscellaneous soldiers. There are 16 sled dogs, but there are four breeds, and the fur colors are even more varied. The Chinese pastoral dogs in them are even unknown to many people.
In addition, compared with others, Wang Bo is also an amateur here.
Tony told him that the skills, competition strategies, and even recipes for feeding sled dogs are different. The players have their own training schedules, and hundreds of hours and hundreds of miles of training are necessary, and they not only have to take care of the dog, but also maintain the dog's endurance.
Where is Wang Bo here? He usually trains, but never does endurance training on the ground-zero snow.
His dog is even more, Chinese pastoral dogs are training for attacks, while strong men and queens are training with him...
In mid-January, the highly anticipated Editarod Dog Sled Competition is about to open.
The competition started in Anchorage, with the destination of what was once the town of Norm, but the route has changed.
There are two routes for the competition now: one is the north line, which is suitable for even years; the other is the south line, which is suitable for odd years. Among them, there are 26 checkpoints on the north line and 27 checkpoints on the south line.
This year is an odd year, so it is relatively difficult to walk on the southern line. One more checkpoint is proof.
The competition started in the morning, and Tony helped Wang Bo prepare his equipment.
According to the rules, each participating team must have some items, such as an Arctic leather jacket, a heavy sleeping bag, an axe, a pair of snowshoes, and dry food for both people and dogs. In order to protect the sled dogs from frostbite, warm shoes must be prepared for them.
These are essentials and must be brought with you to prevent accidents.
Then each sled car has a GPS positioner installed, and the contestants can contact the organizer at any time. If a problem occurs, they will use a helicopter to rescue.
Wang Bo sat on the sled car to massage the dogs. What will begin next will be a fierce battle and a famous battle between Chinese pastoral dogs. This time he came for the championship.
Other participants are also making final preparations before the competition. They are experts in this field. In order to prepare for this game, many people started a new round of preparations from the end of the game, and at least half a year has been preparing.
People first check the dog, take the body temperature, feces, vision, activity and blood tests. As long as something is wrong, the dog will be withdrawn from the competition.
There were too many sled dogs that were exhausted back then, so now we are trying to protect dogs as much as possible. Someone found that something was wrong with the dog in the middle of the journey, so helicopters can contact the organizer to change the dog and use helicopter transportation to replace it.
However, it must be proved that the dog is indeed a problem. If someone wants to replace it with a more physical dog and replace it with an invalid one, then the competition will be disqualified.
Tony prepared shoes and socks for the dogs. This was a long journey, and even if the whole trip was on ice and snow, it could still wear down the dogs' skin.
The strong man didn't change it, and he immediately tore it off after changing it, holding the dog's head up and looking like you can do anything to me.
Seeing this, Wang Bo had to wave his hand to him, and let it go, it was a strong man. It was an iron foot. Every day, it would run hundreds of kilometers in Luo Sun Town, and the calluses on the soles of his feet had long turned into diamonds.
Someone from a participating team next to him found that a dog's nails were cracked, and immediately pulled the dog out, gently sootheed it, and replaced it.
Chapter completed!
