Re: [RC] Setting Fire to Tents a/k/a Cut-throat Competition - Becky RohwerGoodness, that is awful. I've never heard of such sabatoge. I was at a ride where someone, not a rider, pulled about 1/4 mile of ribbon from a trail. It was right at a cross roads area, so no one knew which way to go. It held up a whole string on 50 milers for almost an hour before we got word back to ride camp that we were all lost. Luckily or un, one 50 miler was on the trail before the "friendly" person pulled the ribbons. So she finished the loop wwwwaaaayyyy ahead of the rest of us. Needless to say no one else bothered showing for BC as time wise we were all licked. Other than that incident I have always found people at ER rides to be very friendly, helpful and mostly corteous. Tell her to not give up on us yet.
