You know what…. if they didn't want any shuttling, they should have put it in
the race book from the beginning. Fab should have been at his meeting, or his
manager should have been there to get any info for him. That's what you do
when your pro.
I'll say it, I drove a retrival to Function for training on Stage 1 and 2 and
I drove to the bottom at Alpine and rode up from there on Friday. Why? Cause
they didn't tell us we couldn't until Saturday. And if anyone else drove up on
Friday, what would have stopped them from parking in Function and riding Pura
Vida for a training run? It was on the way into town. Anyone what to get me
DQ'ed for it now, go for it, my 48th place finish I'm sure had a huge impact
on your placing.
To be honest, I was a bit put off by their whole "spirit of enduro" talk
during the riders meeting. I always thought the whole spirit of enduro was
that it was a race format that was more like the average day of riding with
your friends… and not "if you see someone braking our rules, take a pic and
send it to us so we can bust them"
It's a good thing that the vibe of the race, especially in the master's class
I was in, made up for that. It was a pretty awesome day, the biggest day of
riding of my life and something I will never forget.
