And Canada gets the Gold

Dear Back to Back Teams Around the World,

Well.

The Thirteenth Back to Back has been run and won.

The results are a day early because of the horrific State Emergency floods

in New South Wales, Australia.

The Spinning Knitwits & The Masters Apprentices unfortunately had to cancel

their challenge today, being from the flooded areas.

Our thoughts are with them and their families.

The three top teams bettered their previous times enormously.

Perhaps this was due to Edie Shipway & the Merriwa Jumbucks sharing their knowledge on how to beat that clock.

Sincere thanks to Edie and her team.
