BAC TO THE FUTURE \\v2.1 - MAP !!

Hi peolpes,
So .. ive got a map for everyone to checkout. This time instead of having all of the checkpoints on the map only 2 will be publicly known with the other 2 being given at each checkpoint. These 2 privately known spots will be on the hill or on pearl street, and will be given as an address' or street intersection.

This time around ive got some cool tasks planned out. Im not gonna say what they are, so be prepared ! I will say that a bag of some sort will help you.

This time around i will probably wont NEED any volunteers but i could use some help on race day if you want to chill out instead of race. Like i said a couple posts ago, all volunteers get the average or median race time and 4 sprint points.

Since I am organizing the privately known checkpoints, i will not be racing to keep everything fair. I also wont compete in tricks because i want to see what everyone else can throw down. So if your interested in tricks be prepared with trackstands and skids, or anything else you think is cool, and we will take a vote on who has the best trick.

Also new for this race and going forward everyone will be assigned a PERMANENT registration number. This will tie in with the new statistics application i am devloping. If you have a preference as to what number you want, think of a few and as long as they arent taken, you can have any 3 digit integer greater than 0. Like 123 or 666. Otherwise you will be assigned a number at my discretion.

The weather forecast says it might snow on fri(tomorrow) but will be sunny on saturday. So keep that in mind. Also sorry about the delay on statistics for the last race i should have something ready by race day. And going forward this wont be an issue anymore .

Ok thats everything, see yall on saturday !

Updates

I apologize for the delay on statistics, the current method i use to do them is very tedious. BUT, im developing an application that will be able to generate the race stats on the fly ! When i finish it, ill be able to email/print stats just minutes after the race is over !

\\v2.1 - Updates

So for this months race on Nov. 15th i would like to do a hill race, and im gonna try something new. This time instead of all the checkpoints being public, we will have 2 public and the rest private, so when you get to a publicly known checkpoint, you will get an address for a privately known spot. Im planning on having all of the checkpoints be on the hill area. So this time im not taking map submissions, BUT if you live on the hill or know someone who does and is willing to chill at their house and run a checkpoint then please EMAIL me the address. They would need to be available to run the checkpoint from 1:30 pm - 2:30pm on race day. I might be open to having some houses in the pearl area since they will be close to the start/finish. So if you wanna volunteer a spot, EMAIL me the address, do not post in comments.

Results \\v1.3

Sorry for the delay in posting full results, ive been really busy lately. Full results will be posted this weekend so checkback on friday or saturday.

BAC TO THE FUTURE \\v1.3 - Results + News

All in all it was a great race this past weekend. There were a couple of crashes, but luckily no one was hurt.

As for the results, Patrick Decker was the race winner. The overall winner was Peter Cook, holding onto his lead from the past two races. He also takes fastest brakeless fixed gear rider, and best young rider. Sprint classification stayed with Casey Temanson. King of the mountains went to Adam Mork (Me!), so did trix, cus like last time no one showed up.

Full Results will be posted soon !

NEWS: With this first round of races now complete, ive learned alot, and got alot of suggestions which have lead me to make some changes to the format.

- Race Winner now gets a SpokeCard
- All SpokeCards are going to be slightly smaller*
- Registration is 2$ for all races
- All volunteers get free registration in their next race, or for a friend**
* I can send image files to previous winners if they want the new sizes.
** If you volunteer in a race you automatically recieve the median or average race time (whichever is lower) for that race. You also recieve 4 Sprint points.

NEXT MONTHS RACE: Its going down November 15th. Same location, same time. (Folsom/Pearl ; 1:00 registration)

This race is the first in trilogy (set of 3 races). So everyone starts fresh. All finishing times and points will be cumalative.

Chances are that the conditions for next months race will be less than ideal...
