Results are the responsibility of the Chief Judge of the race. The results
are deemed final within 15 minutes of when they are posted at an event. If
you feel that they are in error you must notify the CJ within that time period.
It is standard procedure for the CJ to only pick the top 15 of a group at
the finish. The exceptions to this are that in a stage race all the
participants are timed and picked. For an Oregon Cup race we pick the top
20. More manpower is needed to pick a full field of 30+ riders.
When you see a suspected error, a rider would need to report that to the
judge along with any other helpful information (like the names or numbers
of other riders in the group)
The judge is not highly paid and should be treated with respect. We really
do appreciate it when a rider comes back up to the finish and makes
comments such as "Just checking to see that you got me, I think I was
7th" Sometimes the riders should wait a few minutes but still stopping by
is very much appreciated.
Please remember that in a road race it is unacceptable to ride with any
rider who is not in your group. So if a women finishes within a pack of
male riders that is not considered fair.
