RE: [RC] Well said, Heidi - Jim HollandOD also added a 75, which I believe over time will encourage more people to try the OD 100.

That would be an awful thing for the Tevis. It is what it is, and I think it should stay that way. And besides, up to 250 riders at $275 per entry, tell me that they aren't making money..... If they are making that kind of money - why do they need sponsorship from the UAE? The OD added a 50 some years back and they now have an LD run on Friday. I don't think anyone will suggest that has made the OD 100 less difficult and challanging or has dimished the pride in the people who stand up to accept the buckle on Sunday morning People have been very positive about the addition of these events. It's gives more a chance to enjoy the trail. Truman =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
