Re: [RC] [RC-Digest] Vol: 03.1984 - heidi

So was I...made it to #22 and I did not do a 100.  Plus I did it in the
SE  where finding enough rides was the contest.  I would have never
attempted to do  a 100 until I wanted to go to ROC and I believe that is
the reason the  majority of folks tried their first 100. ... to go to a
major event...ROC, Tevis OD  etc.  even tho the others did not have
qualifications, most people wished to  try an "easier" one first...IMO

It would be interesting to look through some of the old records, but I
suspect you are one of the few who didn't do 100s to place in the
standings.  The year I placed about the same (I was 21st and 22nd in
mileage and points, and I'd have to go back and look to see which placing
was which) I did four 100s and a 90.  And no one thought that was a high
number of 100s at the time.  Many of the rank and file riders did 100s
from time to time, with no aspiration whatsoever of going to ROC or any
such, although ROC did get a few more to do 100s, admittedly.
