The final event of the weekend was a motocross
test. CCR members had mowed a three mile
course that wrapped around the Todd family
fields into a small woods sec on and back. Com-
pe on was fierce and although MX has never
been my bag, the track was amazing, and the big
430 Husky ate it up like a champ. Having the op-
portunity to rip with some of my ISDT heroes was
a special feeling for sure.
Hats off to our friends at Cayuga County Riders
for hos ng such an iconic event. In the end, 34
riders from all age groups entered along with two
ISDT Veterans.
Former factory rider Dwight Rudder, 7X ISDT/E
Gold Medalist was looking smooth on his 1975 Can
Am 125. Darryl Diamond, ISDE '94 Tulsa Oklahoma
overcame adversity all weekend with bike prob-
lems. Being the ironman that he is, Diamond didn't
let mechanical problems keep him down one bit.
Saturday morning, Diamond rode most of lap one
with a broken clutch cable. Saturday A ernoon
Diamond pushed his borrowed IT200 close to a half
mile, to the next check where he made the needed
repairs. As for myself, having the opportunity to
mingle with such greats of the sport I love so much
was a blast! Cayuga County Riders, you can be sure
we'll see you there next year!
