August 24, 201016 yr Just watched the MAV Coverage of the E. Coast Rounds. Excellent coverage but where were all the spectators? I've seen more at most local Trials.
August 24, 201016 yr There was not that many at the NY Natl. It only seem like people that came with the riders and maybe about 30-50 spectators. I think the heat had a lot to do with it, and no Big city's close by. For those that did come a great time was had. And for those that did not come you missed a great trial. I love watching the "west coast " guys and girls come and ride in the mud and hills and woods. And did I say MUD. with not a huge bolder in sight. So not a lot of stoping and hopping going on. Hard to stop and hop in Axel deep mud.
August 24, 201016 yr There looked to be a very good turnout of spectators at Donner, but I can see how a low spectator count might help our cause when the **** it's the fan over this deal > http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/08/17/o...d_n_684531.html Off-Road Racing Accident Kills 8 - ABC News Aug 15, 2010 Edited August 24, 201016 yr by ishy
August 25, 201016 yr I counted 280 at section 9 at Donner during round 10. and I was conservitive, could have been 310. that was when the pro's came through. Both Saturday and Sunday had lots of people. If people knew what they were missing that # would sky rocket, just can't get them hooked. Lots of good pictures, but nothing like being there.
