Sugar Bottom Scandal

I hope the Sugar Bottom Fun ride goes well. It's sad to see the real race get tanked. But that's the way it goes. Ive heard that they could not make any money at that event? At $35 a rider I really do not understand that. The boys at boone make ends meet even after they pay seven oaks for use of the trails. They may not make much but they also do it because they love the the sport. That's saying alot! We get buy in Fort Dodge. After paying off my young event staff with a small donation, paying insurance and covering my misc expences we still come out with money to donate to local causes. We give to causes such as the Oleson Park Zoo, IMBA and this season we are helping the Central Iowa Humaine Society.
If ICOR is making $35 a rider with maybe 85 riders their pulling down a $2900. Got me but that's some good cash. But I can see making it a money thing. $35 entry is way to much! Hopefully they get things figured out?

Well back to work.
Have a great weekend all.
