We have watched and cheered TD racers as they have zoomed through our hometown, Helena. In fact, I will be touring this same route in several weeks... more slowly, but, for for this and a number of other reasons, it is very interesting to watch the race progress.
One of the most impressive aspects of the race is its nature of being solo and based on straight-dealings. The riders integrity, as well as their courage, strength, and willingness to keep on keeping on, makes this a unique event.
If racers violate the trust freely given to them by other racers, they cheat themselves, their fellows, and the race itself. If Steve is correct, this is very disappointing indeed.
