I loved it! I am going to be a 24 hour racing junkie!

How many teams/riders?
Is rishi wearin a mask? He sure is a rocker alright!

 

[spincrazy]

You're insane.

Yeah, how many on your team, and how many laps did you do?
Any mechanical probs?

Very Nice Pics... but whats the deal with the running Seems kinda weird.

We have the lemans style starts on our endurance races too. I guess it culls out the weak so the fast dont have to put up with slower racers right off the bat?!?

 

[The Toninator]

oh, way cool pic's. Thanks

The Le Mans style run is designed to spread everyone out so as not to have 300 or so riders jamming the course at the same time. What was impressive at my first 24 Hour race last year was to see a guy (I think his name was Brett) with no legs running with crutches for the start, and he was passing so many people!

Awesome, some of the those folks can totally rip. Saw a very impressive skier ripping it up off piste with one leg. She just blew us away.

BTW - Ridemonkey did you tag-team it or go solo?

We had 4 on our team. The course was very rocky and flats were common. Our team was fortunate to have 0 flats or mechanicals (except some light troubles which I am going to rant about in a separate thread).

I did 6 laps. Since the best Pro-Duo teams did 9 per rider, I'm thinking I might be able to do that class next year.

Go for it!

Great pics RM.
It looks like the course was very dusty.

Great pics Aaron. I post mine when I get them developed. Can't wait for the race in Moab..... If I don't qualify for the Xterra Championchips on Sept 22nd in Tahoe, I am thinking about doing the 24 hour race in Boise.

Yeah I wish I could go to Boise. No way I'm doin another 40 hour drive this year! My truck broke down the day after I got back. Hows that for luck! You got a team for Boise?
