[RC] racing/25milers - Ridecamp Guest

==========================================

A lot of people worry about the 25 mile riders racing.  The way I see it, of 
course they are, however, most are not competing against each other, but are 
just trying to make the cut-off time.  Anytime you put a time limit on an event 
you force the issue of over-riding. The 25 milers have less time to comlete the 
ride than the 50 milers. Some rides deduct the hold times whereas, others do 
not, therefore the 25 milers have to complete in 5 hours or less, depending on 
the holds.  If you do not wish the 25 milers to race, don't put the pressure on 
them to race.  Lets all get on the same sheet of paper for starters.  Thank you
