[RC] elevator rides..why they went away - Jonni Jewell

Do you think that elevator rides for the most part went away, because ride
management like to start the different mileage groups, at different start
times, so all the riders do not hit the vet checks at once??? If it is an
elevator ride, doesn't the different distances have to all start together,
so if someone wants to elevate from say, the 25, to the 50, they are on the
same time schedule as the 50 mile riders?

I remember when I started this sport in the early 80's, it seemed that all
distances DID start at the same time. Maybe it was because they had fewer
riders, so the vet check impact was not as bad as it could be on the larger
rides these days.

Just pondering.........
