Sometimes one must just shrug one's shoulders and accept that their current
role in this world is simply to be a public warning to others...of what not
to do.

And...Stay thirsty my friends

Email the chief judge listed at the top of the page and she will look into your result. Take a deep breath....it's going to be okay!

PS. Remember it was dark and it's more of a challenge to get it right the first time for results!

Why am I showing up as DNF???? WTF???

I completed 8 laps in Men Master B race last night at Blind Date 9/19.
And the guy that finished in front of me (racer #308) also shows up on the results as DNF.
That is just plain incorrect.

I admit that I didn't finish 9 laps like the leaders in my category, but gosh I raced hard for my 8 laps of glory! And with a front wheel that didn't roll very well, from a rider crashing into me in early lap...

Well, for one, using WTF in your first sentence might make the hard working officials a little defensive. The officials are human. I would start with an apology and try a little patience.

The next time you make a mistake, I hope the person that if affects is patient with you.

Cyclocross is very hard to score. We write down all the numbers of all the
riders on every lap. It is especially hard to score when there are 123
riders out on the course and it is dark. We make mistakes all the time. That
is why we post preliminary results.
If it happens to you. Just get the email of the judge, it is located at the
top of the webpage where the results and send them a calm message stating
what the problem is. Make sure you include your category, race number and
sometimes it helps to describe what you are wearing.
But for GAWD's sake, calm down.

Well, how about you slow your roll (as the kids say, do they still say that?) and read the top of the results sheet where it says:

"If you have questions or corrections, please email Candi Murray."

Her name is even linked.
