Speedy, only 7 hrs?  That's practically next door!  I have exactly 14 hrs drive non-stop from Wichita, KS.

I called Cindy Cowell from AHRMA today to straighten out my pre-entry for the CC race on Friday and my 100cc race on Saturday and she said, "oops" but "I'll take care of it personally!"

Ambr - I'm thrilled to see you racing again this year on your Penton. You make everyone of us older folks PROUD to see you carry on the Penton tradition of off-road excellence!

Hi All, we'll be arriving Thursday afternoon and hope to camp in the MX pits along the fence on the southeast corner.  Look for Moby Dick, my white Ford pick up and cap, stop by, and share the fire and some smores!

here's the lastest, greatest and probably last pre-race report. i had kevin outland, a pretty accomplished off -road guy, ride the woods portion (3.43 miles) of the course yesterday on his modern bike to time it out. first lap, 15 minutes. second lap, 14 minutes.
add the mx portion and factor in older bikes and more riders and we may be doing three laps but possibly four for the leader. also, i rode the course today with corky root, with the exception of the one significant uphill. he's 71 and was on a xr 80 and i was on a xr 100 but i can't stand up on the bike because of the knee injury. we both got thru it and he loved it.  i believe that you will all enjoy it. see everyone there.  [8D]   chi jer

Jerry and all the other AHRMA people, thanks for the first of hopefully many more CC events at Mid-Ohio.  It was GREAT.  I rode the first race and track was nice.  Thanks for all the hard work everyone did.

Thank you all for coming and riding our CC at Mid Ohio. Jerry and Jim Kuhns did a yeoman, incredible, job of laying it out for everybody to enjoy - including low pipe Elsinores. Jerry was still cutting logs out on the trail on Thursday afternoon to make the Premier bike and low pipe bike folks happy. It was awesome - if you didn't enter it, you missed it!!!!! We had a few guys get lost in the Post Vintage race after a kid (vandal) started taking down the ribbons that helped us see turns coming up. Most of us saw the arrows and stayed on track. Next year we will put up "X" signs on the path behind these places where there are ribbons to help riders if the ribbons are vandalized again.

It was super wonderful to have Jack and John blessing us with their presence for the rider's meeting and the awards ceremony. Over 180 riders with a separate Novice class race, biggest AHRMA CC race so far this year.  

You could help our CC series grow and improve if you would write (email) to Cindy Cowell, AHRMA Executive Director ( [email protected] ), Alex Moroz, AHRMA Off Road Director ( [email protected] ), Dave Janiec, AHRMA Board President ( [email protected] ), Corky Root ( [email protected] ), Dave Lamberth ( [email protected] ) and James Smith ( [email protected] ), AHRMA CC Rules Committee members and tell them how much you appreciated the separate novice race. The novice riders love not having to look over their shoulders all the time and the Intermediate and Expert riders love to not to have to wait to pass novice riders all the time. I have been having a hard time getting the separate novice race accepted by some of the folks above. When we mix them together, some of the Experts lap the Novices 4 times per race!!!!

Thanks for your help with this, see you at Barber and the Reunion ride????
