rear-wheel tra v el. But d on 't th in k it
w as n ' t d em an d in g . Be s id e s bein g
aro und 7000 feet in elevation, the track
test ed rid er s' mettle with tha t bane of
the mountains - rocks, and lots of them
every where . In fact, Sunday motocros s
promoter Mike Young Sr. reported tha t
mor e th an two d ozen ra cers lef t a fte r
practice, complaining that the track was
too rough an d rocky.
And that wasn't the only grumbling,
as so me Soda Sp rings resid ents reportedly voiced dissatisfaction wit h the
motocr oss and its atten da n t thro ngs
inva ding their area. As Sayler said a few
days afte r the act ivities, "We'll play that
one a lo ng and see wh at happens. We
go t the tra ck all pu t back toget her an d
leveled off a nd blad ed in and seeded
and stra we d already, so no one can really complain. But we had very few complaints. Mos t of the businesspeopl e have
looked at it a nd said, 'When a re yo u
doing it again?'"
T o t hose q ue r ies, Sayler r e p lie s,
"We' re pl a n ning the sa me events fo r
next yea r."
