RE: [RC] 100 mile rides are disappearing - Rae Callaway
Hang on a bit. We’re working on adding another to the Central
region 100 mile roster. :o) And no, it’s not at Hog Scramble, but if we can get
it all together, it will be a new ride, new location, and I’m sure I’ll need a
new co-manager ‘cos Dawn probably won’t be able to resist riding it herself!

I
have been trying to do a hundred mile ride for several months now. It seems
though that in the central region all 100 mile rides are disappearing. I
counted yesterday and figured out that five years ago there used to be 8
hundred mile rides in our region. Now there are 2 a year. This year one had to
be cancelled so there was only one. What is the reasoning for this? Do
people not want to do them anymore? Also, the number of rides a year is
diminishing as well. It seems now that if you want to be nationally competitive
in our sport you have to travel to the east or west coast. Is this just me or
do others feel the same way.
