Re: [RC] Be Carful What You Wish For - kimfuess

Truman,
How can the MW have more LD rides to Endurance when an LD has to be sanctioned with an endurance event?


Does the MW region sanction LDs without a 50 or a 100?

In 2006 the PS had the smallest LD to endurance ratio was of any other region. In fact while this ratio has been growing in most regions it has been basically flat in the PS ( actually gone down form the last few years ( 2006 to 2006)). This is in contrast to the MW which which has more LD's than endurance rides in 2006. In regions where LD has always been a integral part of the sport, e.g., SE , the ratio has been flat but it started out high. In all the other regions this ratio is growing significantly.

So while a few ride managers may not need the support of the LD riders - I suspect most do.

BTW both you and Angie forgot the Tevis.

PS: Even the Big Horn and OD now have an LD.

Many of the multiday rides do not offer an LD along with their 50. These rides seem to have big enough entries without the revenue of an LD distance. In fact Cuyama, always has a waiting list.

I would like to see the RM put on a ride without
the revenue of the LD riders.

Biltmore's the biggest ride we've got. It has no LD.
