Historical Scratches

One of the major obstacles to conquering the Divide is simply preparing for/getting to a Start. Consequently, TD recognizes (and salutes) all attempts that fall short of completion.

Listed riders group-raced unless noted with (ITT). Single Speed (SS) and (Fixie) also noted.


Total scratches=91 of 195 attempts or 47% attrition rate

Scratch years are color-coded
+ Fin.(yr) denotes any redemptive years

Always wait until morning before deciding to drop out. Things have a way of changing when the sun comes up. —Martin Buser (3x Iditarod Champ)

To some extent, we are all labeled by what we're able to achieve. But more importantly, we are defined by what we attempt. —Scott Tinley
