Like any sport you have to make your own luck. Nothing is handed to you.

I would like to ask everyone how many of you have won a BC?  It is not easy and I venture to speculate that very few people have won or will ever win a BC. It is an accomplishment that many riders strive for but never make it.

Winning a BC takes hard work, it takes smart riding and it many times takes backing off - giving up going for a win - in order to accomplish it. And folks I don't know of anyone that has won a BC by accident. 

Beat on Howard for the right reasons - because he is a screwball, he is a pain in the butt, he thinks at 30 mph but talks at 600 mph, but there is one thing you cannot take away from him. He has won the highest prize in endurance riding - the BC; something very few riders will ever be able to calim.

Truman (who has his on a walking horse to boot in a very fast ride that would make Howard look like he was goofing off on the trail :-) ).
