duringd Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Cant find the seeding... Is it out already?NOT.......
taito Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 long range looks ok,bit of rain on Friday ,my family in Ouds reports that it has been scorching there for the last 2 weeks.
Dubber Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 From the newsletter today:  BATCHES WILL BE ELECTRONICALLY SCANNED IN AND A START IN A DIFFERENT/INCORRECT BATCH WILL RESULT IN A DNF RESULT. Is this the norm?  So if my partner is seeded differently we can't start together? Thanks

Dubber Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 It is the norm...they suggest the one in front waits just over the start linethanks Now we just need to know the seeding ;-)
Skubarra Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 It is the norm...they suggest the one in front waits just over the start line Thats a bit of daft rule, why can't they just let people drop back to later groups like for PPA races?
GLuvsMtb Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Thats a bit of daft rule, why can't they just let people drop back to later groups like for PPA races?Ask to be re-seeded in a lower group. Happens every year.
Skubarra Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Ask to be re-seeded in a lower group. Happens every year. Makes more sense than to hang around 50m after the start like an idiot waiting for your buddies!
GLuvsMtb Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Makes more sense than to hang around 50m after the start like an idiot waiting for your buddies!Historically guys dropped back and then 'lost' time as the timing is done by hand if I remember correctly. This was a cause for unhappiness with riders.
Frohan Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 Is there a lube station somewhere during the race, or must one take a small lube bottle with???
karma Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 Is there a lube station somewhere during the race, or must one take a small lube bottle with??? they had Squirt at a few stations including the Spur burger stop if I remember correct.
