they have 3 weeks to post results...and with this being a national, they will probably take all 3 weeks since it is a lot more time consuming.

If you did well, check cycle news, they have top 3 in each class listed for each race.

I had no idea that those races went over terrain like that. That's impressive!

BTW, why can't SCORE find a flag girl like that? It might make us all want to cross that line faster! :-)

thats only the first loop which has to be "quad freindly"

the second loop is what seperates the men from the boys.

You were Disqualified for starting on the expert line...

If it was your first race, you start either on the novice or beginner line depening on if you wanted to go 2 loops or 1. Since you went 2 you would have started on the novice line.

So you were 2nd ammi at mile 87...means that all the experts were pretty much gone and the ammis were making up the 15 minute head start you had!!!

Live and learn I guess...

Come by 4 aces sometime and I will show you the ropes!

A euro is a 7-12 mile loop run for 45 minutes... they are lots of fun.

The H&H will be 70-80 miles.

Red Mountain is further if you are coming from down here but its not much more...if you are driving a motorhome or towing a trailer...the time to get there is the same time it takes to get to the rockpile since bessemer is such a pile-o-**[IMG]http://cdn3.race-dezert.com/forum/images/mexico-flag.png[/IMG] [I]ĦAy, caramba![/I]****[IMG]http://cdn3.race-dezert.com/forum/images/mexico-flag.png[/IMG] [I]ĦAy, caramba![/I]****[IMG]http://cdn3.race-dezert.com/forum/images/mexico-flag.png[/IMG] [I]ĦAy, caramba![/I]****[IMG]http://cdn3.race-dezert.com/forum/images/mexico-flag.png[/IMG] [I]ĦAy, caramba![/I]**t road.
