Think it's Mathieu Toulouse, Dale Knapp, and Ronald McDonald.

I don't get to make any calls on results, that is done by the officials. But
I thought I'd share two things that I am awaiting answers on. Just so you
know what kind of things go on.

As many of you know I record where every rider is every lap. So I can track
who is missing and validate the results.
In the Master 50/Beginner file, the winner of the Beginners was the 3rd
rider past the finish line on the first lap. The Masters started first, and
then was a time gap of ? before the Beginners started. This rider would have
had to make up the time difference and pass 20 masters riders for this place
to be correct. Probably, sure, but likely not. The assumption is that the
rider mistakenly started with the wrong field. I can go back to the camera
and subtract the difference of the start interval to move him, but I have to
get the go ahead from the officials.

In the B race. The riders that were battling for 1st and 2nd show the
following lap times and lap placements
375 Assor Tim Lap Place 63 46 38 10
10:50:10 11:10:00 11:21:12
11:27:35
353 Klingsporin Soren Lap Place 61 40 31 40
10:59:01 11:09:43 11:20:41
11:31:25
Both riders are clearly identifiable on each lap.

If you do the math the lap times ran about 11 minutes, except for the last
lap for the winning rider. His lap time was 6 minutes. Likely ?? The
assumption is that the rider cut the course. Waiting for a judge's call on
this one also.

I have attached a picture of some riders in the Elite Men field so you can
see some of the problems we were working with. Please identify these riders
;-)
Sigh, if it were only easy.
