My alltime favorite video to watch, is the one from Sarasota a couple years back, when you guys were running in the 160's for miles after miles, with the boat coming in and out of the water. I believe that Tyson, (Big Yellow Cat) posted that vid. If anyone else remembers it, can someone post it back up here?? It was some GREAT footage, that cat ran away from EVERYONE. Them guys were done eatin lunch when the rest of us were pulling up to the lunch stop. :eek: LMFAO

Congrats guys !!! You guys were a great crew to hang with and talk to at the docks.

Frank

probably a stupid question.... why would'nt they have sweeps boats like at a race at least to warn people who might be crossing the hudson with no knowledge of the run.... i saw another video of a nyc poker run and the guys were flying by some fish boat and i believe a sailboat too...

With all the different Poker Runs I've done, I don't ever recall seeing official sweep boats. A race course, which for the most part, is a contained oval, which is easier to manage with sweep boats. It would be pretty hard to have a fleet of sweep boats for a poker run that could by 20+ miles one way and back. When spectating a Poker Run, ya just need to use common sense. Ya have to go on good faith and rely on the spectator to regulate themselves to be at a safe distance.

More power to them. That's great that they can actually get boats to sweep instead of being in the run.

Just an FYI. All the runs I have been in had pace boats and sweep boats for the beginning of the runs (or restarts at the card stops). But I don't recall seeing boats sweeping/patrolling during the run itself. Remember it's only permitted to have the event, not a closed course.

Why does there need to be a fix? Instead of looking for a fix and complaining, people just need to be alot more responsible and maybe do there research as to where a good and safe place to watch a run would be.

007joe 06-27-2008 07:18 PM

i'm not complaining or saying there has to be a fix just asked a question..... sorry
