  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: OK, so they can't count on getting the freight trains to stop for the 2 hours it takes to run the race, but I think they need to plan for this better: have a few volunteers stationed at the tracks to take down numbers and "stoppage time" for the riders that get stuck behind the trains. Test the timing mats befor the race so that they can be counted on. Still don't know why the race official deducted time from other participants overall times for being stuck at the train, but didn't do so for me (she said she was phoning it in right after we spoke). Probably has something to do with the fact that deduction would have placed me in the top 3 for my AG, and I hadn't stuck around for the awards ceremony. Oh well, I was looking at it as just a training day, but would have been nice to walk away with something after the 6 hour drive to and from the race.
