Comments: I really enjoyed the race. Having it being my first race ever, I do not have anything to compare it to. There was one snafu that may have affect some racers. There were several bib numbers that have detached themselves from the riders' bikes and were seen along the road. It was due to the wind, mechanical problem and/or user problem. Apparently that breaks 2 USAT rules, littering and something about leaving equipment. 2 minute penalties could be applied. Obviously, it was being disputed with the USAT referee and I do not know what became of it. I certainly do not think it is fair. It's good to know these rules, anyway.
