ELS INOR E , CAL., Ap ril 16, 1972 - I
believe t hat it wa s Rich T horwaldso n
who h as been q uoted as saying th at a
fifteen mi nu te m oto in motocross is
rough er t ha n a two hundred mile desert
run . T hose may not be his exact words,
b ut he d id mean th at you ha ve to be in
great shape to rid e mo t ocr oss. Today
the Jackrabbits he ld their third an n ual,
A~ IA, Dist rict 3 7 p o in ts m otocross he re
at th e de ma nding Rawhid e motocross
course.
By the time the second round of
motos 'ro lled around, it looked as if
many of the riders would have just as
soon settled for what riding they had
do ne, sit down w ith a cool one. and just
enjoy a fan tastic day, in a fantastic
se tti ng and let the world go b y.
Man y of th e ride rs gave it a real go
th ough. J ohn R ice as usual was ou t
fron t and all business , final results were
not availabl e, but I wo uld say that J ohn
R won th e A m/E x. 0- 125 class ridin g
easily .
I h ad ex pec ted a mu ch large r en try
since the re wer e Dis trict poin t for this
even t. O nly 90 o r so rid er s w er e o n
hand. It was a sh am e, t oo . T he co urse
was in good shape, and th e changes
mad e are good ones.
Ma nager Geo rge J o h nson has quite a
few even ts book ed fo r th e futu re
alrea dy . T h e CMC returns h ere next
Sunday , Ap ril 23 . T he fo llo wing Su nday
