Ridecamp: Re: [RC] Shortage of Multi-Days in SE

Before my time. I checked back in the on line data base and didn't see 
anything. I did recheck and saw I missed something called in "Bare 
Bones" in '90 in Bankheas. But before '96 I'm not sure how accurate the 
online data base is.

How long did you keep the two day event and what were the turnouts like? 
The only reason the two day event 100 worked at all in the mid 90's was 
you could use it to qualify for the ROC that was going to held in the 
east in '97. The last two day 100 run in the SE was in '97.
