2017 Golden Spike

I’ve seen YouTube video of the race and thinking I would like to give it a try this year. I’m wondering about camping…. I have a 40ft motorhome and 20 foot trailer that really needs easy access and flat ground. I would really appreciate some input about what to expect in this regard. Thanks!

I want to say thank you to all the staff and all the stump jumpers. I have been doing the d100 for about 12 years now. it is the biggest event and weekend my boys and I live for every year, until now. The golden spike is every bit as much fun. I would like to add, the stump jumper staff make it easy for a father to race with his boys. I always feel like my boys are in good enough that I can let go and just for a while focus on ripping it up with them. I have gotten a bit slower in the last few years, and the boys have gotten much faster. I had the best race time ever this years. I got a flat on my first lap changed my tire and still caught back up with my class. I was very happy. The boys did well in their classes to.
So to all you father who worry about if your kids are in safe hands. I will tell you this, I have little worries when I am at a Stump jumpers event. Except may be “Reiter Pit” that is not the place for a brand new XCW 530, and the last time I went there. LOL.
So thank you all.
PS a genital nudge to DOG owners. Please be responsible and keep your dogs on a lease when at events. I saw a few dogs get off their leases and they could have gotten hurt or hurt a rider. Don’t ruin it for the rest of us, and get dogs band at MC events.
