We've received a plethora of e-mail inquiring why the rally distance was increased from 311 to 375 miles, and the start changed from Baker to Barstow, CA. The answer is simple. We want to attract more SoCal riders:
Starbucks www.starbucks.com (http://www.starbucks.com) - 1620 E. Main Street, Barstow - (760) 255-1604
Starbucks - www.starbucks.com (http://www.starbucks.com) - 2854 Lenwood Road, Barstow -(760) 253-2549
:roll:
Thus far we have riders coming from Illinois, Georgia, Arizona, and CA.

Simply AWESOME!!! Congrats Bro! Is there a roster of entrants anywhere? I'd like to see what you were up against.
Being in the 125cc class must have been a hurdle in itself.

I finished Hell's Loop T.T. on my 175.8cc Gilera, with no less than 5 gas/pit stops, in 6 hours, 30 minutes for an average speed of 57.69 miles-per-hour. This was done with no right hip or knee joints, altitude changes from 4900 feet to below sea level, and white-lining more than 60 miles of traffic from Baker to Barstow -- at the ripe old age of 64.

What kind of an asshole would steal a scooter racer's auxiliary fuel system a few hours before a race? I guess the solution to theft problems is an alarm system -- and a weapon capable of inflicting death, or great bodily injury!
