Actually, this year's race had the best attendance of any of them. The
past races scheduled in the summer often had smaller fields. I believe
that is why they moved it.

This conversation started with a question about when the Silverton RR
should
be held...I was there this year in the cold rain, and attendance was
poor.
Given a choice, I think we would all prefer to ride when the roads are
dry
and the air is warm. A warmer race date would have undoubtedly produced
a
larger, more competitive and more profitable race.

Promotors put on races based on several factors.</span></font></div>

<div><font face="Times New Roman" size=3><span
style="font-size:12pt">One of
those factors is how many people will show and will it be worth their
effort. If you look at the amount of people showing up to the road
races
during the summer vs the spring, I believe you will find a big
drop.</span></font></div>

<div><font face="Times New Roman" size=3><span style="font-size:12pt">So
instead of complaining about the lack of, do something about it and show
up,
bring a friend and make sure the attendence is high. We can all say that
we
want more, but we ALL aren't showing up then it is just talk. If more
races
have high attendance during the summer the more races will be put on.
It is
called supply and demand.</span></font></div><pre>To respond to the
