For many of the same reasons Magoo stated, PLEASE keep all FES events timekeepers. Using the restart in a FES event would be quite a bit different than incorporating restart in a regular enduro event. It would change the spirit and intent of the FES.fatherandson said:They may use the restart format at Harrison. All others should be timekeepers.
Thomas is wrong often just ask his wife! :ohmy:fatherandson said:Tom had the wrong dates...we will ride on Saturday (4/28) and work on Sunday (4/29).
Magoo - that is a very good point. The closed course format of the new National Enduros will allow a 14-15 year old who has outgrown the FES to test their skills on Sunday. It will be interesting to see how many FES graduates we see in Harrison this year.UP Magoo said:-- IMO, if your child is prepared for and wishes to compete this way, then they should be doing harescrambles. Or even the "grownups" enduro events.
The late (1pm) key time on Saturday makes it an "easy". We leave after work on Friday, and our drive is about 8 hours. Usually break it up by staying somewhere along US 2 Friday night, and Saturday morning is just a 2-3 hour drive.Z-8 said:... The Friday before the Mini Moose is the last day of school here. I'm thinkin it's going to be a short night after driving up Fri evening. I might have to stay and ride on Sun.
