Anyone doing it? Just checked the weather and it looks like it might rain a good bit. I was trying to get my stuff together to ironman it this year, but couldn't pull it off it time. Now I'm almost glad it didn't work out with the way the weather looks.

I’m curious how a 125 does in this race. I’m planning to build older yz for next years race and playing around with either a 125 or 250 2 stroke

It’s been raining off and on all night and today. REM track had to be shortened because of the mud and National Track maybe soon. No Mt. Saint Helens because of mud.
At 3 pm it’s gett colder and clouds are hugging the ridges. It’s going to be cold tonight

We keep toying around with the idea of running a 125 with a big tank and selling it for what its worth after the race. The problem is the logistics always lead straight back to 250cc

My buddy that did Ironman finished 5th. Pretty gnarly to even finish alone!

Such a fun race! My buddies and I did it for the first time last weekend. We ran into electrical issues about halfway but still worth it!

That's my teammate, Justin, waving Trevor by at the beginning of the vid by GPracer4224. Glen Helen 24 Hour was a BLAST!

Him and his buddies are just some 16-18 year old kids that wanted to ride the race.
They had a 125 and just said WTF, let's have fun. They ended up getting 18th overall.
Stoked for them! I sure as hell never did anything that cool when I was 16!

The 125 held up!
