No, I don't.  But there is a definite division within our sport.  The mx-ers seem to think all trail riders are old farts on rat bikes, and the off-road guys think mx racers are whiny punks with piercings who are afraid to get their bike dirty.  And there are plenty out there who prove this stereotype.  Ever notice how here at DRN, there are more off-road riders in comparison to mx racers?  And how the opposite is true at the ever contentious Dirtbike.com?  There are plenty of exceptions to the rule.  My point in saying that this race attracts more of the mx crowd was that they aren't as used to pacing themselves or riding in the woods.

Maybe I titled this post incorrectly as I don't have a problem with faster riders informing me of their intentions to pass.  It's the guys who expect me to pull over for them, and cuss at me if I don't, who piss me off.  There were a few I passed back later as they lay on their sides in the corners, and that made me feel better.  I always wonder if they just see my ponytail and don't want to be behind a girl because (they think) girls are slow.  Then I AM slow and it pisses me off that I've validated their opinion.
