[RC] OD 100- Tom Sites, please read - Amy CieriAll this chatter has me watching a video made of myself and Johanna Blackmore and Debbie Schultz going through the ride in 2000. Man what a great video.
Tom I'm mailing you a DVD. Do you have a DVD player? I'll send a grainy tape otherwise.
This is such a wonderful ride and boy does your crew work hard. I think crewing the OD 100 is tougher than riding it.
We were the Buzzards. I was a baby buzzard, my first OD 100, yet to prove myself worthy of the REAL Buzzards. I think I was inducted by the end.
My horse Gold Medal Stacatto was an old pro and Debbie rode my new horse, Silver Aparition. Both on their 1st 100's and we all finished with the exception of Johanna. She pulled herself. Vets cleared her but the horse didn't feel right to her. Can I say Mentor!!!!!!! Doing the last 20 miles in the dark wasn't my favorite. At one point I was hallucinating and rather than keep my trap shut I said, "I just saw a monkey run across the trail!!!" Stupid.
