This was my first event like this. This was awesome. As was said earlier, this was my first, but it won’t be my last. The Stumpjumper organization is awesome and did a great job! Thank you.
I have to publicly thank my brother for providing me with the best weekend in a long time! Thank you Mark for all you’ve done and for the encouragement!

Another top-notch event. I’ve been coming to Odessa for the past 5 years, and finally talked a buddy from Eugene, OR to ride up with me and experience the Desert 100. In between the groans of sore muscles, and weeping blisters…there were a bunch of laughs and smiles for the long drive back. He’s now in the “club” of those that are hooked on the Race of the Year.
Great job from the time we pulled in until the time we dropped off the trash on the way out the gate.
See ya next year.

GREAT JOB ON THE RACE GUYS IT WAS A ASS KICKING RACE. GOT 10TH IN OPEN CLASS BUT COULD NOT MAKE IT TO THE TROPHY PRESENTATION. THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME RACING THE DESERT 100 IN ODESSA AND I’M SURE I’LL BE BACK NEXT YEAR.

Josh…
Great ride man. 10th in Open is an impressive ride. We hope to see you up there next year. I crashed hard about 15 miles in and the cobwebs never cleared, so I called it a day once I finished the first loop. The course was great this year…there were some real man-eaters out there. The section across the road was phenomenal. Spending some time in Cabo next weekend will provide some great therapy!

No 50 miler’s were allowed thru the chutes for the first wave! Each helmet is checked before we put a start sticker on it…. I saw several who either tried or was just confused and they were pulled out of line and told to wait.
Who was 2nd place team?

I have to correct myself!!!! We just recv’d an e-mail from the FIRST place team, who did not take their trophy and went home after their race. They admit screwing up and somehow getting on the first wave… they request that things get straightened out so those of you that placed in the team class can expect a bump. We’ll start working on getting the right trophies into the right hands, please be patient as we get things straightened out…

NOW I NEED TO CORRECT MY CORRECTION (AAARGH)… I made the assumption that the e-mail was from the perceived first place team but they were further down in the top ten. We are currently working on getting the results straightened out.
Sorry for all the confusion, should get straightend out shortly, hopefully before the results are posted!

Posted by Kristy – “we were very concerned with how the kids 9-12 was handles this year. First place went to a kid who was not even in the top three, a mistake was made and not addressed. We will not be a part of that again.”
Kristy – There is a 30 minute protest period after results are posted, did you bring it to the score keeper’s or an official’s attention? Thats the only way it would have gotten addressed. We have some photos of the mini race as well that might help clarify things but ultimately it is the racer’s responsibility, (or in this case the racer’s parents responsibility) to protest the results.
Sorry you feel a mistake was made, we hope that you do come back next year!

The two guys that placed second in the team race are Erek Arnold (me) and Keith Lindsay. We have both raced many desert 100’s. We started on the second wave and did stay for awards. whatever the outcome for results it was a great race and i cant wait for next years.

Results please.
It is way past the period for disputes and they’ll never be perfect anyway. If they are being edited still, just post them as “Not Official.”
Racers want to know how they performed. It is a test of one’s self. To know how they did, they need the test score. Please post them.
Thanks.
