Yes, I agree. Just look at what
people camp with now. No longer are we using tents and small
trailers. Some of these LQ trailers border on the size and comfort of
hotel rooms. Very nice, but not the way endurance was done 10-20-30
years ago. I think it all fits into a nice neat little package.....we
seem to want comfort more than we want challenge.
or even 10 years ago. Things seemed to be alot
different just 10 short years ago than they are
today.

We just put on a well-recognized 100
mile ride, albeit on the same day as Steph's ride, so I know that
took some prospective riders to Idaho instead of here. However, we
also offer a 75-mile ride along with the 100. As my daughter says,
"Give people a choice of two mileages and they will choose the easier
one." We suspect that the general population of endurance riders are
not as willing to ride the distances or the deal with the difficulties as
we might have done 25-30 years ago.
