Re: RC: Mandatory hold times

With the present system it's really easy to figure your available ride time. 
I'd hate to see some formula trying to compensate for ride "difficulty" that 
would vary the time from ride to ride.
If a particular ride got a reputation for having too much hold time, we'd 
just not go.
