Walter's Saturday night

#1 Post by Iamdanjohnson » Fri Apr 11, 2014 7:38 pm

Last years course the opposite way. 9.4 miles long and 8 is set up. Word of warning. There have been numerous races here so there are all sorts of arrows around. I used a lot of their arrows that I took down and even ran some pieces of their course. You will see our new United Rental arrows that are light red and other arrows that are blue, green, and dark red. Also a few Forward Motion arrows. Sounds confusing but it isn't really. Just lots of foreign arrows out there.

Rocky course that can be raced in the rain. All of it is set up with rain in mind. The course can be ridden tomorrow. The property is a riding area so there is a fee to the landowner but you can ride the entire place.

Just a reminder that our scoring Queen Sonja has breast cancer and is right in the middle on her road to recovery. To help us remember, the trophies are pink!!

One of our tougher tracks but still rideable by all.

First I've heard of this - prayers and a wish for a speedy recovery going out to Sonja.

Now for the race I really hate to miss this one but it is what it is, so I expect some awesome race reports and maybe a youtube video of this race

Dan,
That's really neat idea, thank you. I'm sure Sonja would much rather be there, rain and all.

If anyone is wanting to follow Sonja's journey or just offer words of encouragement you can check out her blog site.

Not much to add so I just changed the original title. All done and ready to race rain or shine. Don't let this weather keep you away! You just never know how much will even fall and where.

I hope no 4 wheelers show up expecting to race the Walter's ranch home page shows a picture of FMHSC 4-wheelers racing there tomorrow

Sucks that they are going to be closed for turkey season for a month.
