Loose Moose and Mini Moose

Is the Sat 6pm sign-up at Holiday Inn or at Staging?
Is the A course same as B +10 miles at the end?
Can B riders ride the extra 10 if they wanted to?

UP Magoo · Jun 5, 2007

All sign up is at staging.
B riders get an extra long reset early in the enduro while the A riders go off for their special test.
B riders can ride it if they want to, but due to their delayed restart for that section, they'll be REALLY late....

Ok I'll enjoy my extra long break! I think that's good that you give them the tough stuff early on before they are whipped.

Helmet head, just think....With your long break you can sit down and eat a whole bag of potato chips then put the bag over your head :cool:

Hey Magoo do the AA riders have to run our minutes?

UP Magoo · Jun 5, 2007

Nope.
D-14 Rule 12 states AA #'s are to be assigned at "D-14 only events" -- our club is D-16 so we go by their rules.

Reading LM threads are more entertaining than reading Dirt Rider! I laugh way more!!! Funny how this version of the press has made this event into a Freddy Kreuger Horror film. Not very realistic!!!

How will minutes be assigned at sign up? First come first choice or luck of the draw?

DW I'm going to stop and pick some berries on my way to the first reset to have for a snack. This easy should allow plenty of spare time for berry picking. I don't think the bag would fit over my helmet anyway.

. Two gas availables at separate locations (not staging), we will have two gas trailers (one for each gas). .

Jeff - I see on the route sheet there is a total of 3 gas availables - one of which is on the C/Masters only section (51.96 miles) - is that one back at staging then?

Some how some way I'll be there. Riding who knows what!
:nod:

TD, you find a ride yet? The 300 is available as allways. 250F would like to do Marquette but I'm tied up for the weekend and to chicken to ride. Sooooo, if you agree to not ghost it up or down or do any other D Marsh tricks, its prepped and ready to ride, your choice. No time to remove the auto clutch so you'd have to live with that. Flight to Ohio early tomorrow so if you would like to try the 250f give Don a call and work out the details. He has my cell #.

Oops! Sorry, that is a typo! 51.96 is a RESET for the C riders and Masters only.
Two gas availables for everybody, at 29.30 and at 64.96, neither is at staging.

Magoo, D16 does not have a AA class. I would say stick the AA's in some sort of group so we aren't all spread out.

I have the route sheets on my site in both PDF and Excel in case you guys don't have them already.

"ghost it up or down or do any other D Marsh tricks"
Hey I represent that remark..........
You sure can tell who you freinds are when they are hiding behind a keyboard...

fatherandson · Jun 6, 2007

I understand there will be a couple of NEW 40+ A riders at the Loose Moose this year.
Bring it on!!!

Wolverine423 · Jun 6, 2007

Batter up...

Don Marsh · Jun 7, 2007

Bring on the hot weather conditioning............
Saturday Night through Monday
Partly cloudy. Lows 48 to 53. Highs around 71 at the shore to 74 to 79 inland.

bbarel · Jun 7, 2007

Better than the 90's we've had some years.

Don Marsh · Jun 7, 2007

I remember at Roselawn, Maggo assured me I would have fun if I came up.......

Magoo didn't leave out the sand pounded up your azz, minus the vaseline part of the fun, did he?

Undies in a wad, work to put on a enduro? Heck, it doesn't take any work to put on one of those enduro thingies does it? :p

slowone said:
It's so new I bet you guys could call it the "More Taste, Less Filling Enduro" or the "Easier Than Your Last Girlfriend To Ride Enduro." Hey everbody, lets help the Sandstormers with their new enduro promotional slogan! The "So Easy You'll Still Finish With That Great Clean Scent Enduro." Any other slogans for this loving group of fine YOOPERS?

Hey, slowone, just wondering what I (or the Sandstormers) have ever done to you?
We're trying to put on a good enduro, and of course there's some good natured ribbing going on between us. But, I noticed you haven't had anything to say but trying to egg people on into a flame war.... what gives?

slowone · Jun 7, 2007

Just ribbing on my part. I wasn't trying to offend you or your group Magoo.

I am not trying to be defensive, but in response to the enduro thingy comment, it was very much tongue in cheek. I grew up around LMC, with a several year hiatus from my late teens through mid 20's. I understand and greatly appreciate the amount of work and coordination that takes place in order to make an enduro happen. I don't know if I would consider this comment good natured, but ribbing none the less.

Now the naming the enduro part of my commentary may have been juvenile, but much of the talk by your group is in relation to it being an "EASY." Too many people complained so the Loose Moose was made more user friendly. Or at least you guys claim it will be easier! ;) I actually thought some of you might get a chuckle out of naming the enduro because it has been "pussified." All I was doing was ribbing and firing back a little sarcasm because of the only new enduro and pussified comment by nzambon. I know LMC did a lot of work the last few years, working in what the DNR people call compartments, on laying out new trail. Now the event may not be totally new, I'm sure the Loose Moose isn't either, but our club is doing the best that we can to put on a quality event and I felt a little offended with the "only new enduro" comment. I apologize if I offended you with the name calling of your event.

The sand pounded up your azz comment was just a smart azzed comment. The Loose Moose has a reputation as being tough and I know Don expects the event to be challenging, so I threw the comment out. This was a comment directed toward the apprehension, some I am sure are feeling, as to the difficulty of this years Loose Moose. It was in know way directed towards you or your clubs character or ability in putting on an enduro. Any group that attempts to put on an enduro good or bad deserves praise in my opinion. Again, sorry if I offended you. Honestly, I wish your club the best with your event this year and am glad to read that an attempt is being made by your group to rectify some of the riders perceived issues with the run. On that note, good luck to all workers and riders, hope everyone enjoys their day. I wasn't trying to be an azzhole and none of my comments were directed at you or your clubs character.

Whew, I don't explain my comments to my wife in this detailed of a fashion. :blah:
