Ripley and Team Dirt,
Your cooperation with the BLM and IMBA just may be the start of something huge in a key area of the Willamette Valley / Coast Range. It is so Central and to be honest, with your love of the Endurance aspect of mtb racing.....it could be a big link in a future mtb race from the Valley to the Coast. If my body would do what my mind remembers as tons of fun.....I would be all over your race. This was fun even before this new trail. Plus the Falls!!! I showed you folks the potential there....enjoy.
Thanks so much to all of you for your TIME.....that is the most gift anyone can give.
For those of you on the fence about this race....I suggest you go do it. You will be a better mountain bike rider when you finish another journey through the “Ripley World” I know.
So get out there and ride at least pretty fast and take at least a few chances!
old and in the way,
ron
