It was posted on KTM Talk, that Brownie collapsed from dehydration after the race. He was transported and is doing okay.
Between the rain Tuesday before the race and Saturday it made things a little interesting. We had to cut out parts on Saturday's race and change the track in others. We can't do anything about the weather though. It seems most people liked it including the format. Heard some people complain it was too hard. We were trying to find a balance of challenging for all but still doable.
I imagine without the rain it would have been substantially easier. For a lowly C rider like myself, it was probably one of the hardest things I've ever done (did 1 lap in each of Saturday's races).
sol, it was not a good day for being social…too busy trying to stay dry. Too funny we were right in front of you in the maroon chevy pickup, blue ez-up and 250 orange xc.I was there, my son was racing and the wife was there and on crutches. Sorry we did not get a chance to say hello. I think we need café bumper stickers or something; was not a good day for café t-shirts! I have some videos of various areas around the main pit area, did not venture to far out…it was ugly out there. Two races on Saturday with class line starts and an early Sunday morning 5 bikes per row, engine running and keep moving up to start line takeoff and a Sunday afternoon 3 row, 50 bikes, run to your bike and go type of start. Link to Saturdays two qualifiers and Sunday morning and main, the top five put on a hell of a show. Groemm did over 3/4’s of the final race without a left foot peg and ran out of gas to boot. (Pun intended) Andy was 3rd OA A rider after Saturday's qualifiers and 22nd OA; and finished 26th OA out of 50 in the final race Sunday. http://www.moto-tally.com/ECEA/ECEA/Results.aspx The final 50 had 38 finishers and 12 DNF’s; Yes it was tough and long! Sunday's final race was 3 laps; a 'short' 4 to 5 mile first loop and then two 11 milers...there was some carnage. Sunday morning row 1 - Ryder Lafferty/Husq Sun row 2 ????/Husq Sun row 3 Mike Brown/Husq Sunday afternoon start first mud hole heading out...
