Joe Low Posted November 25, 2013 Share My friend did a study for Cycling News a couple of years back that showed a +/-30% difference on entries to timed finishers over a numner of the major road events. No chipsDNFsDidnt show ups These were the main reasons. On the didnt show ups, the time between the entering the event and doing it means other things happen in-between. Illness, no training, cant afford the trip, better things to do, weather etc etc. Big drop-off, but i can tick the boxes on most of these reasons from my own experience.
