We could use some good news after hearing about Ulrich and Basso being 
suspended from the Tour de France today!


So here is an update on our very own Charlie and Ernie, racing as 
24Seven at Primal Quest.

They have currently moved up the leader board into the top 25 overall. 
My guess is the last few legs of mountain biking, which is a strength, 
have helped.  They are currently on the long slickrock bike trails, so 
hopefully they can continue to move up.

While top 25 may not sound impressive, remember this is the big money 
race of the year and all of the top US teams and many of the top 
international teams are there.


Other teams that we have raced with in the top 20 include Might Dog 
(#17) and Moat (#13).  Moat was the team that won the Florida Coast to 
Coast the year Charlie and I raced with some of my old FL team mates, 
when we placed 6th overall.  And Mighty Dog often wins the local races 
like NGAR or SMAR.

Check out the web page -- there are some great pictures and this sounds 
like a truly amazing race...  Some crazy ropes sections, white water 
swimming, long mountain bike and trek sections with crazy elevation 
gains, etc.
