RE: [RC] Biltmore: at Gate 2 (21 miles) - Laurie Underwood"Cuss" Politis?! That one got me to giggling! "o) Laurie Underwood -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of John Teeter Sent: Saturday, May 08, 2004 12:13 PM To: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [RC] Biltmore: at Gate 2 (21 miles) Well, the calls from Angie can be wandering - I'm not really even close to being able to capture her stream of consciousness as a scribe. basically, it's hot back at the Biltmore today (as expected). For those who are up front in the 100, the pulse-down time (which is ranging from 3->10 minutes in the first 20 runners), will be a large part of who stays up there. The first vet gate (at 14.2 miles/40min hold) had the first 25 riders within 3 minutes. I'll not list them here. Pulled at the first gate were Suzie Hayes, Vicki Stanislawski, and Cuss Politis. The second gate (21.7 miles/40 min hold) had the top 20 within 9 minutes. Stagg and Jan Worthington pulsed down in 3 min. most of the rest were 6-10 minutes. 09:44 18 Lewis Jennifer Jabbar 09:44 328 Stewart Amanda Tu Muchh 09:44 332 Swift Rita Jayel Victor 09:45 413A Fleming Myra Fly Like The Wind 09:48 335 Orr Kim DMD Bays Harrah 09:48 307 Downs Kathryn Chlosta Moondanse 09:49 433A Sandler Samantha Redhaven's Ezekial 09:50 426A Newman Stagg Jayel Super 09:50 444A Worthington Jan Brown R Timothy 09:51 316 Knight Betsey Jureeba Kassan 09:51 317 Kornwolf Mary Shiloh 09:51 325 Sandlin Doug Omars Apatchee 09:53 313 Isaacs Karen Jeb 09:54 439A Thomson Sandra RW By a Nose 09:55 406A Brucker Jonie Electric Smoke 09:56 303 Bostic Mike Cougar 09:57 404 Benns Wendy Flirt with Ecstacy 09:59 412A Engsberg Sarah Hunt Koweta Vanna Kaye The current loop is 21 Miles (with a 50 minute hold). They are doing exit checks on most of these holds as well. Extremely cautious on a hot day. In all, there will be 5 vet Gates (+ the finish) on the 100. Info on the 50 next time. Logistic problems: The 3-part Vet Gate forms are causing problems with the out-timers - people (mainly the open AERC folks) are forgetting to give the 3rd copy to the out timer (and b/c they don't have a crew specifically task with taking the paper over there, they take their horse over to the out-timer and it's congested..) The second logistic problem is 2 latrines for everyone at the vet check area on a hot day may be a problem. I sent Angie one of the old black EnduranceNet t-shirts. I sent it along more as a historical piece, but she was wearing it - but people were beginning to stay away from her as the day got hotter. Angie wanted me to ask ridecamp for suggestions for a slogan which she can use to welcome HE SHK bin Sultan Al Nahyan. Seems that he has a (now very dusty) black BMW which NEEDS to be welcomed to endurance (it's his 1st 100) in style. Something short and easily written quickly by finger-tip and reflecting the soul of Endurance. I will forward suggestions. The Shiekh is 17, Bonnie and Josie near that age as well:) more later, johnt (in lue of the real thing:) http://www.enduranceworld.net/events/2004Biltmore/ ============================================================ Common sense should also be a part of the decision making process.
