Jessica,
You were right in the fact that the riders all did it for fun! It was basically a 14 and Over Open that was no-charge. We would get the vendors to donate some product, but other than that it was all about having fun with no pressure. Anyone could race…cruisers, girls, experts, novice, beginner, pro…anybody. It gave everyone a good chance to go out and have fun as well as bring some excitement to the local race. I remember guys coming from NY, CT, and DE to race that Royal Rumble. We would have 1/4’s every time, and in the end everyone had fun. I encourage you or someone to bring those back!
