[RC] Why not more 100's? was: [RC] rc: 100 mile interviews - Ridecamp Guest - Maureen A. Fager"On the AERC 2005 Ride Calendar I only saw 2 100 mile rides for the West Region, 2 in the Pacific South region, and 7 100 mile rides in the Northwest region (way to go Northwesters!!!)."**Actually, there are three in the west, as Tevis is not yet listed on the calendar. "I'm not so sure that it is the riders that AERC needs to be encouraging to try 100's or is it the ride managers that they should be encouraging to put more 100's on! I'm hoping that AERC can come up with a way to encourage and help ride managers to hold more 100s. ' **Interesting point of view, and do you have any suggestions? "There's probably alot of reasons that I'm not aware of why ride managers aren't holding as many 100 mile rides as they used to." **Two 100 milers from the West that I know about that have been lost have been the Red Rock 100 and the Washoe 100. The "whys" though, I'm not sure of.
