Bjorn enters the forest with another sigh of relief. The end of the race is in sight. Well, the first part of the race. Once he gets the mead skin, he will have to get back--and Ulberth is sure to attack him on the way. For now, he puts that out of his mind and urges the dogs forward. Having achieved a good lead over Ulberth, he decides to show some caution going down the aisle, going a little below full speed. Even if Ulberth somehow catches up, he will not be able to pass Blorn in this thin aisle.
Bjorn goes at 40 (I assume this results in a slightly lower DC), plus aid to self.

Bjorn urges the dogs on. Seeing Ulberth in the aisle, he realizes that he will probably need to go through the woods on the way back to avoid Ulberth--at least part of the way. He grits his teeth in frustration and commands the dogs to a go little faster.
Bjorn goes at 50 m, plus aid to self.

Bjorn's dogs run fast and soon he enters the clearing. It is a large clearing, about 50m accross. About 20m from the entrance there is a pole stuck in the frozen ground and on it, there is a leather bag of what is probably mead. There are some straps on the bag so that someone can sling it over their shoulder.

Ulberth curses at his dogs as he also speeds down the forest aisle.
Sorry for the delay, site was down.
Bjorn aid self, success. Bjorn drive: r10+7+2=19 for 56m.
Ulberth aid self, success. Ulberth drive: total rolled 18 for 54m.

Total distance covered:
Ulberth 878+54=934m
Bjorn: 945+56=1001m (the mead is at 1020). DC in the clearing is 10, speed 50.

No worries about the delay--I was having trouble connecting too.
Bjorn grins fiercely upon seeing his goal. He has beat Ulberth, at least on the first leg of the contest. He urges his dogs on at full speed, then comes to a stop next to the pole.
Bjorn goes at 50 m, plus aid to self.
Upon arriving at the pole, he takes the bag of mead off and stuffs it inside his jacket, where it will be hard for Ulberth to simply grab. He then looks around on the ground for any sticks and/or stones he can stuff in his pockets and easily throw at Ulberth in self-defense if need be.

Ulberth drives his dogs on and is almost in the clearing. There he stops the dogs, still inside the aisle.

Bjorn races to the pole, and turns around, so his dogs face the exit again. He secures the mead in his jacket and collects three fist sized rocks from the ground.
Ulberth drive: (aid self): total 19, for 56m.
Bjorn drive, collect mead, collect rocks.

Total distance covered:
Ulberth 990m
Bjorn: 1020m
DC in the clearing is 10, speed 50.

Bjorn glances at Ulberth. The Rathgar chieftan is obviously looking for trouble, but Bjorn had expected that. The old man has also made a bit more progress than Bjorn had hoped. Bjorn considers a moment, then urges his dogs on at full speed. He tries to look as though he's heading straight for the aisle to confront Ulberth. He shouts insults at the man to reinforce this deception. "Why don't you admit you've lost, old man, and just get out of my way!?" He hopes that Ulberth will remain where he is, waiting to attack Bjorn. Instead of confronting the chieftan though, he veers into the woods. He hopes that the time it will take Ulberth to turn around will give him enough of a lead to get past the rocks and go out of thew woods and out into the aisle in front of the chieftan.
Bjorn goes at 50 m, plus aid to self. (He'll probably show down when he gets into the woods.) Also, I guess it would be a Bluff check to fool Ulberth.

As he nears the woods, Bjorn realizes that they are too thick to pass through easily. Instead, he keeps going straight on at Ulberth, shouting more threats and making it look as though he will reach for his dagger. Rather than attack the chieftan, however, he attempts to barrel past him in the narrow gap that's available.

Ulberth falls for the ruse and Bjorn makes it for the small gap between Ulberth's sled and the trees. He squeezes through, but Ulberth reacts fast. He jumps onto Bjorn's sled, balancing on the boards before the driver, wielding his dagger. The sled passes and, with the two warriors, is in the aisle.
Bjorn Bluff: rolled 4+2=6. Sense motive for Ulberth: rolled 2, failed. Bluff successful.

Opposed drive check:
Bjorn rolled 15+7+2=24
Ulberth rolled total 25! Passing is unsuccessful. Good rolls for Ulberth. Bad luck for Bjorn.
Ulberth jump: success.

Total distance covered:
Ulberth's sled 990m
Bjorn: 970m (with Ulberth on the sled)
(we're counting back here...)
