Sounds like a great course! Unlike Mudfest..... And Nice Picture!
I guess I would be kind of annoyed about the Elite racer - Ok, maybe you have a committment and maybe you want to stay in shape for the Nat'ls, but come on.....that just seems really unsportsman-like. And I have a question about the reasoning behind the DQs - If you are in front and sprinting, then doesn't the rider behind really have an obligation to stay out of the way? After all, the person in front can't see behind him/her, so unless you just purposely swerve across into someone, it seems like that is putting a real onus on someone who doesn't really have as much control as the person behind..... Or am I misunderstanding what went on?
Anyhow, we will be at the Nationals, but only on Friday- Hubby will be riding the Masters 55+ class and I will be playing the part of Pit Tootsie/Coach. When are you riding, Cathy?
