Anyone seen this?

does this mean that unless you have submitted results they will only use previous 947 results?

AFAIK, they aren’t using Racetec for timing, so can’t use them for seeding.

ridiculous, especially considering only 1 of the 947s since I did my first one in 1998 was not timed by ractetec.

And what happens to us with no results to submit?

You get automatically relegated to the 25km mtb if you've entered this event. 

Not too sure for the road race though. I'll watch for replies as I'm in both events with the same position as you

We’ve gone with a disposable timing chip embedded in the race number. They might be doing the same. 

It comes down to cost.

Sleep in and make sure you have enough water for the heat.

And also my last road race. It's the only road race I have done annually since about 2010.
