Re: Sanct of 100 and 150's



Greetings Jerry!
My writing is too late at night, not as of too much drinking!!!  However, I
too love multi-day rides - I put on one 2-dayer, and this year another
2-dayer will become a three-day, and one 5-day - I know how much fun people
of all ages have at multi-day rides.  Many people say, obviously without
much thought, that a 2-day 100 = a 1-day 100.  But SANCTIONING them as a
2-Day 100, etc., I believe, is "dead wrong"!  For all  the ones that you
attend, do you enter them as seperate 50's or 2-Day 100's, etc.?  As I
wrote, not many do.  They need to go.
Happitrails!
Brad.
