The Viking Race 2006, held this time in Scotland, is now complete. Looks like five rounds of racing, with one discard, which is not what the competitiors were looking for. A minimum of ten rounds is what they hoped for. Some days of light wind, and a couple of rain, tempered the competition. Still, the results show that the cream always rise to the top.
