Do you know if the course will be going through Gabbs again? Always enjoyed that section. Full race speed through town to the market, turn left, back out into the dezert.
Good luck to ZTR and all other Husky riders! Hell good luck to everyone. That's a run that anyone should be proud to finish in one piece.
Also headed out this year. My buddy is racing/riding co-pilot w/these guys: http://raceforthewounded.com/
That's a great looking organization. Thanks for sharing that link TC! I'm always down for organizations that help our heros, and this one just got added to my list. Subscribed to their Blog.
Glad you jumped on it. They're all class! And, what they did for my buddy? Priceless Warfightermade out of Murietta, CA is also good (http://www.warfightermade.org/) as is EOD Warrior Foundation. My wife was assigned to EOD for five years so I really got behind this group for all of the good things they were doing (http://www.eodwarriorfoundation.org/).
Tinken, Ty is the rider of record, but he's not iron manning it is he??? Who are the ZTR Team riders? Ty, Justin Morgan and/or ?? Is this a team race?? Note NB is off the grid on injured post op. See Pdf there are classes for all riders. Pro Exp and Am Riders list. our other (beside Justin) local D-38 fast nice kid Grant Statley is on the grid as well in Open EXP. http://www.bitd.com/images/stories/pdfs/vtor/2014_Draw_MQU.pdf
its like a safer Baja (500/1000) type race. Not as much "open" course type stuff. (yes it is an open course but not a cow,goat, police car, car, truck, pedestrian, fence, booby trap etc etc open Baja type course)
