[QUOTE="KTM Mike, post: 1244617, member: 22658"] I dont mean to put words in Fred's mouth here, but I suspect the real issue is not the 2 day event itself, rather it is if any single club can pull off a 2 day event with adequate attention to saftey concerns, arrowing etc. Fred's experience seems to show 2 out of 3 cant. While I enjoyed the 2 days of racing in a row, I agree with the others here that arrowing etc. at Goshen was not the best, and they flat out did a crappy job of marking areas with saftey issues - I was absolutely floored to see the barbed wire fences without a single bit of caution ribbon on them, no paint or caution markers on some of the crap they ran us through. I dont expect perfect safety (safe = absence of risk) - but some basic effort towards alerting riders to areas of HIGH risk is appropriate!. (and yes Nick - I have helped at an enduro..I know it is a TON of work and do appreciate all the many hours of work that go into pulling off an event!) I suspect, if all the saftey issues that existed at Goshen existed at any single day event we attended, we would feel about the same - that that club had done a crappy job, and perhaps should not do future events until it was absolutely clear such issues would not exist in the future. I do agree the huge task of two adult events in a weekend is a likely contributor to these saftey issues. The issue to me really is the saftey (and arrowing etc.), not the simple fact it is a two day event. How much of a contributor? Dunno...if it is large enough, maybe two day (adult) events should be off our schedule unless it is two different clubs (as someone else pointed out about Wolverine/Harrison in 2005 - I had a blast there as well), or other assurances of adeuquate staffing etc. can be provided.
