All riders are through the Oroville control ahead of the closing time by 2 
hours.
Unfortunately, we've acquired 3 additional DNF's at the Oroville control.
We've lost:
30  Sterling Hada
76   Eric Simmons
106  Dave Hawks
These riders made it to the Oroville control, yet decided not to continue 
for reasons unknown, but more
than likely due to heat during the first 100 miles.
We're now at 97 riders out of 101 starters.
It was a curious statistic that in 2001 all riders that made it past 
Susanville on the outbound leg completed the ride successfully.
The data from the Tobin control are starting to come in so a few riders are 
at or past mile 143.5.  It's now 0350hr Wednesday and to Tobin control 
opened at about 0100hr.  It will close at 0925 Wednesday.
