Ok, so who is going to call out the cavalry and have them rectify the situation? Was there contact information on that page? I'm happy to do it because....

They got it wrong. We are #1. In fact, the Cross Crusade is the
biggest amateur series in the world. Last year's Alpenrose was 1,438
(revised).

Is there another series that tops out numbers? Also, they listed the participants for Alpenrose at 1,390 for last year. I thought we topped 1,500?

What do they mean by this quote: "Cross Crusade was born in 1990 and was once America's largest cyclo-cross series"? I thought the Cross Crusade IS the biggest series in the US. Is there another series that tops out numbers? Also, they listed the participants for Alpenrose at 1,390 for last year. I thought we topped 1,500?

I could be wrong on both of these points, but if I am not, then they need to get their facts straight!
