Denis Dell Posted January 28 Posted January 28 I haven't seen a 2024 page, but am curious if the riders that crashed in group D, very early on in the race are all okay? It happened behind me so did not see much, but it sounded horrendous.

Denis Dell Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Okay, that is good news. Meant it wasn't too serious then. ChrisF 1

mikkelz Posted January 29 Posted January 29 Great event, strange that there's no event page/post for it. Reminds that the views on the Hub are just a small percentage of what's actually going on out there. 😉 Anyway, another thing I don't like about the FinishTime results page (aside from the wasteful disposable timing chips, lack of historic race data, etc.) is that there does not seem to be a way to view finishers by category. i.e. I want to see how everyone did in my starting category. The "Category Results" link just shows the top 3 in each category, same with gender. 😞 Also looking forward to there being fewer questions at each future race number collection of people asking if they need to also bring their RaceTec chips and how do they mount the FinishTime one. 😜 That really made things take longer than they needed to at collection in Wellington on Friday.

I could not agree more with you. I too would like to see how my starting block/category did. FinishTime obviously has all the data, but their website does need some work. mikkelz 1

Which speaks to your previous post .... looking at the "results only"m you dont see the age .... And no way I can filter out the Amish bikes to see where I actually finished .... Not to mention that I robbed some poor male of the 525th position .... PS - YES, e-bikes register in a different field. After Durbie Dash I was vocal about my feelings towards Finish Time ..... I still dont like them. mikkelz and Scary Rider 2
