I otolink's Greg Bauman had an ambitious plan. Promote a National Hare Scrambles race and throw in a two-day National Dual Sport Trail Ride (the first National ever in Arizona) for good measure. The start/finish was situated at Vulture Mine, 12 miles outside of Wickenburg. The Saturday course took the riders through the high desert area and up into the mountains for some forest riding. Riders enjoyed a PJI-sponsored lunch stop in the town of Prescot't, and returned back to camp. M Sunday's course again took the riders up into the mountains for some forest riding, but continued to the resort town of Crown King (two saloons and a general store) for lunch and gas. At 8:00 a.m. on Saturday, riders lined up behind Grand Marshall Roger DeCoster, who was riding his first-ever dual sport ride on a Honda XLR650. DeCoster, a five-time World Champion motocrosser, loaded up his roll chart with a quizzical look on his face and took off with Bauman in tow. For many riders, it was a thrill just to be able to say they rode with DeCoster. The day started with a few miles down the pavement through Wickenburg, then the first optional section took riders down into a sandy river bottom. After a couple of miles of sand, the course turned under a railroad trestle into the hills. Eleven miles of challenging terrain over sand, rocks and rutted, unused old mining roads had riders huffing and puffing. One rider on a cherry BSA vintage bike dumped it on a rocky road and broke off his front brake. lever much to his chagrin. Instead of worrying about the damage, however, he just continued on. After the participants finished the section, they came out on Castle Hot Springs Road, which gave them a rest for the next 20 miles. The next optional hard trail was a rugged four wheel drive section called Crown King Trail. This lO-mile section was technically challenging. A number of four wheel drive vehicles were passed by the dual sport riders on their climb to the top. Riders who stopped to enjoy the view were treated to spectacular vistas of the entire desert countryside. Near the top, the terrain turned into forest with a corresponding drop in temperature. A lingering cold front had riders who just wore jerseys wishing they had brought their jackets. Rain from Friday night had dam· pened the ground, much to the delight of the riders. Riders turned on a great 30-mile-Iong fire road, which led them into Prescott for lunch. Lunch was again sponsored by PJI Lubricants at Greens and Things, a local deli. Riders got to eat their lunch in the town square, right in the middle of downtown Prescott. After lunch, riders headed down the hills via Hwy 89 for 25 miles~be£ore taking a detour onto a fun, windy, dirt road through the countryside.
