We need some help this weekend with timekeeping for the XC Race.

This a a relatively easy job that starts after registration is completed - you don't have to be computer literate or too worried aboout making mistakes. Is there anyone who would otherwise be spectating who could help by writing down the rider numbers as they come through? Boyfriend, girlfriend, parent, spouse??

Any rider who wants to take the day off and earn maximum points in the pointscore can also volunteer.

Please let me know - [email protected] or see me at registration on Sunday morning.

looking at the results I notice the average speeds are very low suggesting it is a tight and technical trail ,is this correct?

Speeds - The low speeds could be due to the fact that the pointscore officer didn't put the correct distance for the lap length in the computer beforehand! The lap length in the computer must have been about 5km, but the actual length per lap was about 8.3km. If you're smart enough you can re-calculate the average speeds, or wait till I fix a few other mistakes I have noticed since, and re-post the results.
