The Big Horn ride is a great challenge.
The mountains up there are some of the most beautiful on earth. The history of
that area from the first fir trappers on, is very interesting, and when you are
up there on that mountain you can almost feel what it must have been like back
then. These great old 100 miles rides are falling by the wayside in favor of the
bigger comercialized big 100's, and the more bang for your buck multiday
rides, which in their own right are wonderful, but the Big Horn remains one of
the original icons of our sport. The ever faithful BH management have work very
hard this past couple years to overcome what seemes like unsurmountable problems
to save this great old ride, they have very little help, but none the they less
have done so. Rides that live along time often must rethink, reorganize, and re
group. But the Big Horn is alive and well, and will live on to ride another
day. I think the fur trappers whos bones must lay beneath that
mountain must smile as they see the bright pink tights and helments fly
