Dinkymoo Posted January 26, 2015 Share I was looking at road events and times on Racetec and found a few suspicious entries. I find it a little strange that some of these girls can ride one race like an amateur and the next like a pro. Have a look at these screen shots: Am I missing something?

Long Wheel Base Posted January 26, 2015 Share I noticed that as well. 2 ladies mixed with the elite men times. I'm thinking they did the short route yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaper Posted January 26, 2015 Share Could be that the 94.7 they are charity or corporate riding with a group or riding with a friend to help them finish... hence the slow times in comparison to others. I would compare other races through the year rather than the 94.7 or Argus with any other race as many do not see these as races and ride them for other reasons Just my 2c Edited January 26, 2015 by shaper J∆kk∆ls 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmarc Posted January 26, 2015 Share As with some MTB races, I think there is a lot of cheating in road races. Nothing stopping a rider getting picked up along the route and then dropped off around the corner from the finish. remember the guy and his girlfriend a few years back that claimed the fastest time at the Argus, fortunately they never crossed the mats at the top of Smitswinkel so they got DQ'd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skubarra Posted January 26, 2015 Share As with some MTB races, I think there is a lot of cheating in road races.Guys, hold the horses on the cheating claims! Racetec often gets short and long route times mixed up, doesn't mean anyone cheated and usually gets fixed quickly. I suggest the OP remove the names of the ladies in question. Not fair that they are accused of cheating when it may well be a mistake from Racetec. renburg, Smit90009, Huff&Puff and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikki Posted January 26, 2015 Share I'm aware of some guys wearing ladies timing chips just so that they (the ladies) get better seeding at the larger races like Argus and 94.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtypot Posted January 26, 2015 Share Why would you want a better seeing if you're just going to get dropped by your group? I don't get it... Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
