Hey, highbeam, that was you? I was working check 4, where the gas is, wearing rain gear and a black/orange flame cap. You made it, that's more than I coulda, and there were some who looked worse on their 1st time around that check. James and I were play riding the afternoon before, took those switchbacks up to the top in really heavy rain, and I started feeling a whole lot better about the prospect of standing around a checkpoint all the next day vs riding it.
Amazingly, there were a fair amount who were within 2-6 minutes the 1st time around, but most everyone except the 1st few were pretty tired, and this was only 30 miles, so I knew people were going to be hammered by the time they made it around to us again almost 50 miles later, figured they'd be way late, and then here comes the 1st one within 2 minutes of his time... unreal. After him, seems there were a about a dozen or so within a half hour, then the few that were left were pretty much spread out.
Anyways, glad to meet you, sort of.
Night Enduro's coming up there, all the fun you just had +++
Just kidding, it's should be much drier, easier and stress free -for anyone crazy enough to ride a dirtbike at night :yikes:
