Re: RC: LDs and 50's

[Howard4567@aol.com]

I remember the whining at Far Out Forest; I was one of the whiners.  But I still think my idea has merit for these rides that have 200 riders or more.  There will be a gaggle at the first and second vet checks when the 50's and 25's meet there.  The managers need to think about how to make it less crowded.

If the 25's started sooner, they'd finish sooner, and their completion check should be secondary to people still riding.  And the 50's start on the other loop, not the one the 25's started on.  If your loops have different distances you can throw this into the scenerio.  

90 minutes might be excessive, but it's an idea that would improve the long lines at the big rides.  Since so many riders are opting for 25's, especially with the warmer weather, getting them off the trails earlier can only help things, as far as crowded vet checks go.

cya,
