60 mile Tour out of 200 entries: 115 did not complete the entire course
60 mile race out of 200 entries: 66 DNFs
60 mile single speed race out of 35 entries: 7 DNFs
80 mile race out of 100 entries: 66 DNFs
80 mile single speed race out of 23 entries: 13 DNFs

The attrition rate was 2/3s on the 80 mile race. Ya'll ever heard of such a high attrition rate in a race?
If you can't be fast, at least have fun.

that's insane! Why did so many DNF? (besides the fact that it is really really hard!) :)

The time cut offs for the 80 are much more ambitious than for the 60 mile course. If they had a few more hours, I think many more might have finished. I made the last time cut off by less than 5 minutes!
