They have the date for 2013 - all the docs are for 2012. :(

...and they fail to explain where this actually happens. One post mentioned Kent, but am I missing something? Desert near Kent - could simply be I don't know the state that well, though...

They mention "private land and BLM Lakeview OHV area", but it's hardly obvious where this is for planning purposes - especially for non-locals.

Still, should be findable with today's technologies. :)

Guess it's over towards Yakima, somewhere around Mattawa - the reference is vagueish on the site...

I got this off the vague site;

Oh and no, I do not want to race my adv bike. I'll be racing the full 100 on my 400 which will be far less brutal than 50 miles on my 1100gs
My hats off to you guys racing the big bikes.

It's just west of Odessa, WA. here:

Well dang, guess this is just an excuse to bore it out to 653cc now.

I have been getting ready for this over the past few months, bike is just about dialed. But I am in for sure this year on my KTM 950 Super Enduro!

Thanks for sponsoring the race Cyclops!

I hope we get a decent turnout. Last year there where at least a dozen guys who decided not to race at the last minute.. To bad, they all missed the best conditions that I have ever seen at the 100.
This year I'm looking forward to having real suspension under my bike. Pin it to win it!!! Thanks Alex

The ADV bike madness continues at the D100.

Excellent! Ha ha...

You guys are burly - rode my 950 around the course a little bit but . . .

Wow, this would be an awesome time on a big bike. If I was a GS owner, I would put the naysayers to rest and flog that big fraulein through the sage brush!
I am planning to attend the 100 and hopefully race my 450. I will probably try to hit up someone for truck-pool when my buddy flakes out at the last minute, stay tuned!

Sometimes that sage brush fights back

Well that sucks.

Maybe I'll just ride at the back of the "over the hill" class.

You are not kidding!!! Darryl (Cyclops) finished the race with his bike banged up bad and a broken sternum....you have any idea how hard it is to break your sternum?? And how painful it is? Try a sternal rub on your self. Go ahead. I dare you.

You guys doing this on the big adventure bikes....you're phuking nuts and my heros!
