Never complain about too many choices ..... Only be concerned if there is a

lack of opportunities !

In a perfect world, the races would have been staggered so that you could

enter the 3-4-5 event

(assisting the less experienced riders in the skills and tactics of racing)

and then also enter the 1-2-3 event.

Thanks for your input on the grouping of the Cherry Pie race Scott. First,

I

had expected about 100 people to the race, thinking it was the first race of



the season and some cat 3 have been slacking all winter and wanted a slower

field, while others looking to upgrade, or want to really test there fitness



could have a bigger challenge by riding in a faster group. 244 riders

showed

up! Generally one can predict 10 percent of OBRA riders will show up for

any

race. With the fewest numbers of 1 and 2's and 5's I decided to split the 3



group. I have not done the counting on participants in any category, but

next

year I may run a seperate 1,2 and a 3, and a 4, 5 field. With OBRA rules of



a field limit of 100, and we had 81 in the 1,2,3 field that was split, a

straight 1,2,3 field would have been too big.



I will file your concerns-thoughts with the others for the race for

consideration of next year's event.
