Tevis vs OD

[Lif Strand <fasterhorses@gilanet.com>]

Don't want to get into any arguments about which race is harder, but I'm
not sure you can compare races that easily (comparing humidity, dust,
rocks, altitude changes, ride management, time of year, etc.). There's
too many factors and too much subjectivity doing it that way.

I am thinking the only way to compare races of the same distance might
be by average completion rates.  If 90% of the entrants usually complete
one ride,  75% another and only 50% on average for a third, wouldn't the
first most likely be the easiest and the last one the hardest of the
three?  Any thoughts on this?    Lif
